D+-+Session+3+-+Visual+Thinking+Strategies


 * Information About Session 3**

The third STEAM session will be held at the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh. The focus for this session will be on the use of Visual Thinking Strategies and will be facilitated by the staff of the Children's Museum. The experience will be a unique opportunity to learn about a different way to engage learners of all ages in observation and questioning.

The session will begin at 12:30 in a museum "classroom". Unlike previous and future sessions no lunch will be provided. Therefore, you may want to stop and have lunch before coming to the museum or have lunch in the museum's own cafe (menu is attached).

When you get to the museum (address below) there are two parking lots...one is free and one has a cost. When you enter the museum please check in as a member of the STEAM group and if you are in the parking lot that charges let them know and you will get a voucher for parking. You will also be directed to the classroom where we will begin the session for the afternoon.

Don't forget to bring the assignment you received at the end of Session 2 related to the use of questioning in the classroom. We will begin the afternoon by reflecting upon and discussing the work you have done in this area of teaching and learning.
