We read the story “Leaf Man” by Lois Ehlert. While reading, we discussed the various animals and objects that the artist created using leaves. After the story we brainstormed other animals. We then took it a step further and imagined we were someone/something else and again brainstormed what we might see in the leaves. Students then created works of art using leaves.

Living Space - Let's Talk Science
Rating
0.0 stars

"Participating classes will explore how indoor environmental conditions influence human health, and identify the best conditions for healthy living. This knowledge is important not only on Earth, but also on the International Space Station (ISS), the future Lunar Gateway, and as long-duration space travel progresses, maybe even on Mars!"

"Students and educators will study the key environmental conditions that are monitored and managed to keep astronauts healthy on the ISS. Students will measure environmental conditions such as temperature, CO2, and relative humidity in their classroom and submit the data to a national database. After developing their understanding of optimal ranges, and collecting data on their current environment, students will make a plan for classroom environmental improvement. The national Living Space database allows students to compare their classroom data with information from other participating classrooms in Canada as well as data from the ISS!"

"The Martian" or Other Movie 21st Century Skills Activity
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

So, let me ask you the question: How often do we let students “work the problem” in our schools and classrooms?

Do we give students a chance to figure it out on their own or in a small group? Do we challenge them to solve a challenge in a fixed amount of time? Do we let them struggle and fail to the point where they have to work the problem and find a solution?

With PL - Now every student was “working their own problem” and stumbling, struggling, and fighting to find a solution of how to learn, make, create, and launch an idea out into the world.

“The Martian” is a great example of working the problem. He has to use a multitude of 21st Century Skills, along with his team, and the people back on Earth to work together to survive and get him home.

As part of the ELA theme Chocolate students were asked to think about
how new products are developed. They brainstormed new chocolate products and
then selected their best idea to continue. Each student was asked to create a
marketing plan, radio or TV ads, as well as print ads promoting their products.
How it demonstrates Creativity? I followed the 6 Phases of Creativity from the
Learning Together Booklet. Students were told the basic framework for the
assignment, but they were given total freedom for selecting the product and
designing the elements of the assignment. They did several brainstorming tasks
along the way to help them refine their ideas.
