They're Off to See the Wizard!
Each
year, the teachers of Team Discovery plan a very special day for
their students around the classic film, "The Wizard of Oz."
The teachers dress as Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the
Cowardly Lion and the Wicked Witch of the West. Students
participate in a variety of special "Wizard"-themed projects,
including using their math skills to count the number of bricks on
the Yellow Brick Road, participating in a group writing story,
updating the Oz characters in 21st century fashions, making
mini-scarecrows and creating a tornado (vortex) in a 2-litre plastic
bottle. |
