Thursday Lesson #27...

Life Lessons in Room 113 - Writing

*Each Thursday we watch a short video clip that I title "Life Lessons" which I incorporate into our daily writing. 

*After the video we have a class discussion about the content.

*My students then spend time writing about the video which could include their reactions, thoughts, feelings, or connections.

Lesson #27 - "Thinking Outside of the Box"
*This is one of my favorite videos I have used this school year.
*It is so important to teach our students to think "outside the box."
*I love when students give creativity, thoughtful, and original ideas.  
*Today we watched the video, discussed what it is trying to teach us,
 and what we do to "think outside the box".
