This is my Minds on Media Slideshare about 105 the Hive.

1. Tune In To Learn
Learning Opportunities on 105 The Hive

2. How We Tinker First …
Exploring Math Manipulatives And Solving Math
Problems

3. Then We Have A Radio
Show
 Share our thinking aloud and clarify what we
thought.

4. More Tinkering …
 Playing with problems. Designing and creating.

5. And The Tinkering
Continues …
 We create. We build. We design. We think.

6. We Can Tinker With &
Without Technology
 Another group shows their creating, building,
designing, and thinking – all with art supplies!

7. An Opportunity To Share
 Clarifying thinking as they share. Expanding on
ideas.

8. We Can Tinker With Ideas
 Here we “played” with point of view, as we
considered how different characters in the book
would think, act, and respond.

9. Then We Took Our Ideas On
The Air In This “Hot Seat”
Radio Show

10. We “Tinker” With Ideas In
Books
 Thinking deeply about the books and figuring out
what the author intended to say and why.

11. Using These Ideas On The
Radio
 Sharing thinking with others. Responding to
questions.

12. The Ideas I Didn’t Try
 Before reorganization, I did prep coverage for JK-
Grade 2. Here’s what I wanted to do with them.
Students loved building with the
Geometro tools I brought in to
use. They had so many creative
ideas to share.
We could have done a radio
broadcast in an “interview
format.” Students could
continue building and sharing,
and I could walk around asking
them to “tell me more” about
what they created.

13. Tinkering In Grade 1
 Students learned about various media texts by
exploring options, “playing” with them, and
recording what they observed.
Why not allow these Grade 1’s
to teach others about media
literacy? They could host a
radio show. Even as they’re
exploring, I could go around
and talk to them about their
learning. These conversations
could become a “Media
Broadcast” for 105 the Hive!

14. Do “Tinkering” And
“Inquiry” Go Hand In Hand?
 Students are inquiring during Science, Social
Studies, Health, and Media Literacy. I think that
inquiring allows for some amazing “cognitive
tinkering.”

Look under October 3rd to hear the “Debate on Matter.”

15. Imagine Creating A Radio
Show Where Students Have
These Debates …
