We read a few books about Einstein and his life growing up.
We learned that he studied light, sound, and space...just like we will this year! He is a reader, a writer, a mathematician, a scientist, and a researcher, but most of all--a thinker.
When we read On a Beam of Light we learned that he was very unique. He didn't speak until he was almost four, and started wondering about our world when his father gave him a compass. He asked LOTS and LOTS of questions--so many that his teachers thought he was trouble. ;)
He is a perfect person to study for LEADS because he is so full of questions.
Here is a short video so you can see him in action:
We designated one of our notebooks as our "Think Book" and put his picture on the front.
Today we started to record our important thoughts, ideas, and questions in this notebook. We also recorded our wonders on post-it notes and put them on our Wonder Window.
We loved Albert Einstein's hair, but we gave him a new hair-do in our Morning Message.
We have so many wonders!
