I’ve been seeing a lot of posters in the last several MysteryQuest USA session. They are still really hard to do well. In today’s afternoon session, Washington Elem, California did an excellent job. I think it was their first time too.

The students had very clear posters with big writing and just the short bit of information that had to be written down. The students came up, held up the poster, waited a bit. Then they read the information from the back of the poster. Reading from the back helps the student hold the poster still and straight to the camera. After reading the clues, they paused again! It was wonderful that they didn’t run off so quickly! Made note taking much easier. Great job, Washington Elementary!
