First day and night!

We arrived to the University of Connecticut yesterday afternoon. It is a beautiful campus with so much pride and tradition. We started off our week with registration, checking into our dorms… yes, dorms! Then we headed to dinner in the cafeteria. We had our first session last night from 7:00-8:30. We did a group scavenger hunt in which we were given 10 clues. We then had to solve the clues then take pictures of our answers in creative ways. After we gathered our pictures, we used a great online resource called Comic Life (http://plasq.com/comiclife-win ) to make a comic strip. This would be a great tool to use to re tell a story, I know even my kindergarteners would love it! Use the demo version, it’s totally worth checking out! After the session, we went to the Patio Party, we had a great time! Here are some pictures, the first one is of the patio party and the second one is of our dorms! ..... Off to hear our key note speaker, the one and only, Dr. Renzulli!!!
