My students began their inquiry teams this Monday. They browsed baskets of books related to weather and went on a "nonfiction weather words hunt." They devised a list of words that they predicted they would find as they browsed the baskets full of weather related resources. They each chose a word and kept a tally on how many times they came across those words as they explored the materials in the baskets. Great lesson. Kids loved it and learned so much!
PEACE,
