Project Based Learning & Transformation: Cranny

Recent educational researches have shown that students learn best when concepts and ideas are embedded into real-life challenges in the classroom.  Our intermediate classes will explore this approach in term one through our Transformation: Cranny project.  Students will learn to work together, in collaboration and with guidance of the teachers, towards completion of this authentic project, while exploring curriculum connections in Math, Language, and the Arts, as well as developing important learning skills outlined in the Growing Success Document (with specific focus on Responsibility, Organization, Collaboration and Initiative)

We are happy to answer your questions regarding the project, as well as any feedback you may have.  Please check back here frequently for project updates and student blogs.

Happy learning to all~
