Students participated in a 3 day long Li’l Stories Lab, where they collaborated, created, captured, and shared stories. They had a lot of fun practicing sight words in the context of story creation. Students actively discussed and created visual stories and practiced critical thinking, communication and collaborating with friends. Here are Team 211’s stories from May of 2017:
