[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not enough to talk about trips taken.  It's about presenting her ability to shift point of view, or ability to organize information, or any other thinking strategies (analogy etc) listed on FCPS website.

Writing prompts such as "What if I can fly" demonstrates shift of POV.   "Why is a school like a forest" demostrate the child's ability of analogy.

School samples took care of that. Hopefully your AART has these.

Eventually the committee approach all work samples based on those thinking strategies.  While I agree that school samples covers those strategies more deliberately, it benefits that parent samples address those thinking strategies as well.  For example, the child can write the trip report but maybe demonstrate ability to organize information, or shifting point of view, or make analogies.  It's about knowing what sweet spot to hit instead of just being generally "creative" or "imaginative".  [/quote]
