A three hour tour....


Creating a curriculum connection for an inquiry-based lesson is a lot like discovering an uncharted isle!
Thursday, Brittany Metzger and I worked on a simulated activity called “Rock-Star Trading Cards”; we learned how to use the internet to promote interest and learning. We also learned how to use the template and walked through the steps to the assignment as if we were the 4th grade students.
Thanks to Brittany’s lightning fast typing skills, we were finished in a flash, but that gave us time to explore the process and think about the strengths and weaknesses of setting our own students out to discover “uncharted lands”.
It will be interesting building my first actual inquiry-based lesson using the Tennessee State Standards!
