Today the 1st graders took their final stab at navigating the invention process! (There will be more inventing opportunities; this is just the end of our specific invention unit.) We started by reviewing last week's concepts and pondering activity. The students then revisited last week's pondering/invention activity but this time with a twist. They went through the process but they wrote a fill-in-the-blank book called The Journey of an Idea while they did it! Some of the students were able to add photos and reflections of their work in their Book Creator portfolios, and the other students will finish next week, while the early finishers complete a side challenge. Once a student finishes their book and invention, they will bring them home, and you should definitely have them read their books to you! They did a great job.
