What do you SEE? (Describe what you see using WOW words) |
I saw lots of enormous, steep, turquoise, and really tall mountains. I saw Maya religions, and how they made things in their country. I saw houses made completely out of stone. I saw Granite walls that fit perfectly together like puzzle pieces. I saw tons of green trees with beautiful plants. |
|
What do you THINK? (As you are experiencing VR tell your audience in detail what you are thinking using sequence words. First, Next, Last) |
First I thought that the Maya country was only certain colors because all I saw outside was green, white, blue, and light brown. Next I thought how long it took them to build the walls. Last I thought that the Maya people were creative with their country, and made it unique. |
|
What do you WONDER? (During your expedition what are you wondering about? What questions come to your mind?) |
How long did it take to complete that granite wall? Did the granite wall stand to bad storms and strong winds? How many mountains are in the Maya country? |

| Text Connections |
|
What did you SEE in the Expedition that you can CONNECT to the text? (Be sure to cite specific examples from the expedition and the text) |
I saw Granite walls that fit perfectly together in the expedition, that I can connect to the text because in the text it specifically says, “ But right here was the most beautiful stonework he had ever seen-huge stones cut so perfectly that not even a razor blade could be slipped between them.” |
|
How do you THINK the Expedition enhanced your understanding of the text? (Be sure to use evidence from the text to support your response) |
The expedition enhanced my understanding of the text because in the expedition I learned a lot about the Maya country and in the text the Maya country was the lost city. |
|
What do you still WONDER after experiencing the Expedition and reading the text? (Write a reflection to extend your thinking i.e. What are you still curious about? What more do you want to know?) |
Did the Granite walls stand during floods, hurricanes, and high winds? |
