During a serendipitous excursion to Park School, I happened to intrude upon a third grade classroom where students were using Thinking Maps in the middle of a lesson. My initial goal was to capture some photographs for this blog. It was my great fortune to overhear Ms. Mariani say, "Refer to your Circle Maps." This was my lucky day. I experienced map-making LIVE. Wow! Students made mini Circle Maps for various geometric terms and defined them in context. EVERY student had a Thinking Map. I left with a big smile.
