Students enrolled in this one time session will participate in a highly interactive critical thinking game that will require teamwork, active listening, fine tuned powers of observation, flexible thinking, and an ability to think just a little bit differently! Oh...and be ready to laugh...because it's just bound to happen! Students will be working both individually and as a team as they uncover clues and attempt to find the "key" to unlock the game. Think you are up to the challenge? Grab a friend and come join us! We need your brain power to break the code!
Learning Goals
The goal of this session will be to help learners develop inductive reasoning skills through interactive play. A variety of core curricular concepts may be woven into the experience, but the primary emphasis will be on developing the thinking skills needed to analyze the content rather than on the content itself. All of this will take place in a game format that is fun, engaging, and non-threatening to even the most hesitant learner. Deep learning...genuine fun!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Helping students discover their talents, passions, and strengths is one of the things that brings me the greatest fulfillment in life. Encouraging them to find a way to plug those talents into their learning is a vital part of who I am. As a former Math/Science teacher and FIRST LEGO League Robotics coach, I have spent countless hours helping elementary school aged children discover the wonder of learning with play. My work as a Gifted and Talented Specialist taught me the importance of inspiring children to look beyond the obvious to the abstract and helped me to see the joy that comes from viewing every child through the lens of his or her strengths. My hope is that, through my teaching, I can help each child to see himself, or herself, through that lens as well.Reviews
