Next: set up study groups, identify leaders and volunteers, agree on the concepts needing a review, use advisory time for 15-20 min focused and deep work. Reinforce that teaching is the highest form of learning.

Session#5 Set up a fishbowl where a student volunteer teaches a concept that will appear on the final exam. Coach the student in advance how to lead the study group session.

Observe-Ask Questions-Investigate-Present. Today we were at the Present stage of our first inquiry into object-based learning. We learned about Korea by looking at their coins, China and their seals, India and their bracelets, USA and their baseball team shirts, and so much more!
