The PIP supplies are here!

As you may have read earlier this week, I talked with the students about how they would be given the chance to work on their own Personal Inquiry Projects (or PIPs) as part of Daily 5. One of the things we talked about was what kind of supplies they thought they'd need to do their research - items mentioned included binders, highlighters, and sticky notes. So, I did some shopping yesterday after school, and picked up the supplies. When I brought them out during Daily 5 today, the students were thrilled! Those who had brought in information for their PIPs immediately dove right into working on them. The end of the day came very quickly, much to the dismay of many of the researchers. One student asked if they would be able to work on these at home on the weekend. When I answered yes, many of them cheered... to my (pleasant) surprise! I can hardly wait to see what they bring in on Monday!
