The Amazing Shake Competition

Welcome to our first annual regional Amazing Shake challenge!  We cannot wait to have our 4th & 5th graders compete in these amazing challenges that will undoubtedly prepare them for all the nuances of "real world" professionalism like how to "work a room," how to give a successful interview, or how to remain composed under pressure.

This year's theme is Communication in History:  The Key to Understanding
Students are invited to create a google slide poster demonstrating research and interpretation of a topic’s significance in history and how it relates to this year’s theme. The analysis and interpretation of the topic must be clear and evident to the viewer. Students will also provide a bibliography listing primary and secondary sources.

What is Sketchnoting & Bullet Journaling?

Verbal to Visual

Sketchnoting is a form of note taking that allows students to take information from verbal to visual. Simply put, sketchnoting is using mnemonics to connect images with information in order to increase one's ability to remember what is learned. In GT this year, I plan to use this technique as a tool to help students with organization through reflection, connection, and memorization. Bullet journaling is also a technique we will use to assist with creativity as we tackle our affective (emotional) needs in GT. Sketchnoting is all about getting information down effectively--not art! You may see your GT students begin to use this skill at school and at home. My hope is that this can be a transferable skill that will benefit them in all learning settings.
