At our elementary the students stand out in such a big way. They are ALL leaders. We are in a small town with a large number of low-income families. However, they are leaders with the help of 7-Habits and Leader in Me. I am lucky to see my 4th grade students shine as leaders in their final year in elementary. They have grown so much academically, physically, and emotionally.
The students know they can personally make a difference just by being themselves, using their own strengths and talents.
At our school and in our class we set our goals high and work to be the very best leaders we can be.
My Project
The 3D pens will allow students to take a well thought out plan and bring it to life. The classroom leaves kids with a lot of abstract thinking or futuristic thinking.
I want to give them the chance to make their ideas concrete.
While beginning with the end in mind, students will be able to work together (or individually) to follow through on a plan or idea. This could be very basic as to creating a character from a story, or higher up as to solving a problem in our world. One idea that comes to mind is pollution, create a device that will help reduce the amount of pollution on our earth.
The best part of this project is that it applies to all students. Artist, scientist, math minded, engineers, kids that love technology, the list goes on. How excited about a topic would you be if you knew you were able to live out your idea in the end?
