Empower Your Teen
As they say, “scientia potentia est!”
Okay, no one says that.
But people do say the translation: Knowledge is power!
A fascinating connection to that saying is the much more ancient proverb:
The wise are mightier than the strong, and those with knowledge grow stronger and stronger.
- My daughter loved this class. She had so much fun and wnats to take more classes of Mrs. Kennedy’s.
- My son had a lot of fun in this class even though math is a struggle for him.
- My daughter loved this class and the teacher. We will look for more classes from her, highly recommend if you like a challenge.
You can find out more about the class and read more than a dozen reviews, here.
Think/Notice/Wonder Challenge
The puzzles I share each week in these Do-the-Math Mondays posts are similar to the ones I use with students in my critical thinking classes.
Use your observation, inference, and communication skills to finish these statements based on the image below.
I think…
I notice…
I wonder…
With your teen, come up with as many of these statements as you can, maybe in a tennis match-style (you say one, then your teen says another, back and forth).
It’s amazing how many details we can gather from one image.
It’s interesting, too, to see how we interpret these details in the same way and differently.
Enjoy your time together!
You’ve got this!
