I am so proud of all the hard work that each of them have done to wrap up this PBL unit! When I look at their finished teaching books, I see very clearly that the learning goes way beyond their final product. Don't get me wrong, their teaching books are great, but they learned so much more than just how to write an "All About Book." In my mind, they learned how to wonder about something! I think it is pretty powerful to think that a kindergartener has the tools to learn more about something they are interested in and create something that teaches people more about it. I know that they will take these skills on with them to first grade where they practice "We Wonder Wednesday," and I hope they take this excitement for learning home as well. Instead of passively taking in the world, we can learn more just by opening our eyes to learning. We can learn so much from books, nature observations, playgrounds, videos, conversations with people, ect. Keep on wondering, learning, and teaching!
