Student thoughts on the Arctic

 (Themes)

 (Sentence)

(Phrase)

The Glopo Year 2s began their work this year by focusing on the geopolitics of the world's oceans; specifically, the Arctic. As a reflection, the students engaged in a Sentence-Phrase-Word visible thinking routine (full lesson here) to capture their thoughts and ideas from both their assigned article as well as the entire class period's worth of content and discussion. The word clouds above capture the students' take aways from their first day of work in class. You can read their complete set of responses and analysis here.
