NECCunplugged

This was a pilot project in a 3rd grade gifted class of 7 kids. We began sharing 4 iPods and moved to each student having one.

**IT ALL BEGAN WITH. . . . **
a School Board meeting in March.

School Board links: Sammie Sebastian Darren

The kids asked if they could take the iPod Touches back to school after presenting at a school board meeting. Thus began the iPod Pilot.

I won the first two games, lost the third game, and won the last two. //you must take your time and think, you would have to use this skill **when you play poker,** and on tests//.<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

Darren My experience was horrible. I lost every single time. Obviosly it was hard. I think the skill is critical thinking. I think you would use this skill if you are trying to find the story inside the story.
 * I think the skill is like a detective trying to narrow down the possibilities of the criminal.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Sammie 7<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> I would use this skill in real life for geometry because of how to put the square in different position. This skill could also be used in a game like chess becuase you have to predict what your opponent's next move is going to be.<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> Maggie The game was hard, because you had to figure out where to put the little dot. I would use this skill in life when I am playing Madden NFL. Because I have to figure out what play to do and, I have to figure out what Wide Reciever to throw to.<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
