CLASSROOM – Challenge 2
Challenge number 2 comes your way in the classroom. The next five days we take a look at include some history and some goofiness.
Some of the featured observances include National Freedom of Information Day and National Awkward Moments Day. Some of these days have been featured in the Classroom before, so if you’re looking for specific project ideas, don’t forget to explore the entire March Classroom.
HOW TO OBSERVE CLASSROOM – Challenge 2
Download and print this week’s project and give your students the opportunity to explore the national days in their own way. It might surprise you what they discover! We’re often surprised by our own discoveries!
Celebrate Every Day in the Classroom by:
1. Asking a question about the day or observance and finding the answer.
2. Exploring the subject further. Whether you read a book, interview an expert, watch a documentary, or run an experiment, there is always more to learn about the observance.
3. Writing about the day or observance. You can write about what you learned or what the day means to you.
4. Telling someone about the day. You might be sharing information that is helpful to someone. Or, you might brighten someone’s day.
5. Solving a problem. Many observances discuss issues around the world that need fixing. How would you fix it?
6. Being creative. Draw, paint, build, design, bake, create your idea of what the observance means.
Of course, as always, sharing on social media isn’t required; learning is. But if you do, please use #NDCClassroom to share on social media.
