As my students are more than writers, but young readers, writers, speakers and listeners, and ultimately, thinkers, the launching of project-based learning in my English language arts classroom will also launch my students into endless opportunities for collaboration especially as we return to the classroom face-to-face and readjust to a year apart. Being online meant a lot of working alone, even with the best use of technology, and even before the coronavirus pandemic, so often were formal essays and writing tasks kept private to the student, aside from peer-revision and writing workshop opportunities. Even presentations were often limited to the final event itself. By implementing project-based learning, breaking this norm, and making learning more collaborative, students can achieve more academically and grow socially and emotionally as well. As we transition back into the classroom after a year of online learning, the donations to this project will help to draw a link between the virtual world where most formal writing takes place and the physical world where on-demand learning takes place through ideation, revision, and conversation, which was a challenge to do over the last yearThe donations to this project will help us transition back into the classroom in a way that will highlight and continue to build on the knowledge and skills of students who have had a challenging time practicing and honing over the past year. Being back in the classroom means that learning will naturally be much more interpersonal and collaborative than we had experienced online, despite our best efforts over Google Meets to build a community and grow together. Students can draw on each other's unique strengths and backgrounds to build on each other's thinking, challenge, and meaningfully grow together into well-rounded and empathetic
