Assembly - Active Learning

For our assembly we decided to share our learning maps.  We spent a long time identifying the writing barriers we have.  We presented those barriers as dangerous freshwater creatures of our choice.  The river houses the dangerous creatures that we identified as barriers to our success in writing.  The idea of active learning is still new for us so the process was heavily scaffolded by our teacher, Ms Corbett.  Likewise our assembly presentation was also guided by Ms. Corbett.  It is our goal to be more active in what we present both online and to our friends and other teachers in assembly.  Here are some samples of the maps we did with a few of the barriers highlighted for each.
