At Concord we are a Project Based Learning school focusing on STEAM. Just within this small "window" there are many things happening in our room. Turner and Blake are watching on our Promethean Board a film about the life of trees that goes along with our 3/4 project about Michigan trees. Evan is looking up information about how pumpkins get large as his I-Search. Landon, with the help of Ben, is painting his python after measuring the length using string and coiling it to fit on a piece of paper. This too is an I-Search. The students are able to choose any topic to learn about, culminating in a project that is shared with the entire class as well as doing whole class projects.
It is wonderful self-directed way to learn and we are proud of what we do!
