The first blog I picked to follow was, Learning is Messy. A class of 4th graders launched a balloon in the air and attached a camera on it. The balloon got up to 107,800 feet in the air and took over 500 pictures. I was amazed that a balloon could do that. These 4th graders are really using their heads when it comes to the science part of this activity.
The second blog I chose was Six things, and it was about 6 things our students are good at that we would've never even known. The skills they can do are not the skills we want them to develop but they are still clasified as "skills".
Twirling a pen between two forefingers and a thumb.
2 Leaning back on a chair just far enough to avoid falling over.
3 Drawing moustaches, devil’s horns and penises on photos in a book.
4 Opening the book to the wrong page every class.
5 Balancing a pen between the upper lip and nose.
6 Clicking pens quickly and noisily.
