WOW! Show number 3-0. This show erupted spontaneously. It was Friday morning following journal time when we typically work on a whole group project involving creative writing. I was finishing up the Avatar project with the boys. The girls had completed their parts and were reading and enjoying books together. One of the girls approached me and suggested the girls do a play using one of our Language Arts stories as their model. I told them if they could work independently and make sure each one could participate I would record their efforts once they finished. This motivated them to action.
All seven girls discussed their lines and then created some artwork to accompany their lines. They worked very diligently. I just enjoyed seeing their spontaneity, inspiration and creativity at work. It motivates me to perform as their teacher-facilitator. They all took ownership and shared in the project. I am very fortunate to have such self-motivated students. They simply amaze me. As for the boys, they were also working, collaborating and comparing their Avatar dialogs. I promised to do a special 'flying' project with them soon! Shortly before PE I was able to take the girls to our multi media room to record their production. They we very cooperative and poised. They are hoping to perform their lines live on our internal morning news for the whole school. That's Girl Power for you!
