The 5th graders spent the morning reflecting on their drone project experience in their digital portfolios. They also got the chance to practice free-flying a drone since they have only flown them with programming so far this year. We then had a fun time premiering each of the team's videos where they also shared some words about what they learned through the process of the project. Check out the final videos linked below!

In the afternoon, they started some independent research on a microscopic topic of their choice as a way to spark student interest in the microscopic world and develop some classroom specialists. The students will be assessing themselves throughout this mini-project based on a student-generated list of "Habits of a Self-Managed Student."
