We are continuing to use the Big Ideas in our learning while engaging with hands on materials to deepen our learning of these ideas.  When asked, more students are able to name the Big Ideas that they are learning.  In moving forward to being able to name Big Ideas, some classes are putting the Big Ideas into more "Kid Friendly"  language in order for them to name and understand them more in depth. Some classes are posting the Big Ideas up around the classrooms so that they have the tool close by to help them access it easily. For example, in French, one of the big ideas that we have been working on and renamed to make it easier to learn is; We are listening to learn French.
