Pensamiento crítico intercurricular a través de los cortos de TED-Ed

In this class, we will feed your learner's curiosity through video-based lessons that explore the arts, health, literature, mathematics, philosophy, psychology, science, or social studies. 

By using Ted-Ed talks to introduce the topic, our discussion will encourage your learner to think critically and dig deeper into interesting subjects. 

While this ongoing class will follow the same format each week, the topics will change weekly. 

Class Format
In class, we will first review the introduction summary and provide our initial reactions to the video. We will use an interactive class discussion approach to dig deeper into the content. We will look at possible real-world applications for the material and how it relates to our own experiences. Finally, we will complete the one-page summary sheet with the key takeaways from the video and discussion. 

January 8: Does My Dog Know What I'm Thinking (Science)
January 15: Inside a Cartoonist's World (Art)
January 22: Why don't Haircuts Hurt? (Science)
January 29: How does your body know you're hungry (Health)


Each month, new topics will be posted. Students will be given choices on what subjects they wish to explore within parameters set by the teacher. All video subjects will be specifically geared toward elementary-age students.
