My Project

I am lucky to have 12 amazing students who love to explore and learn about new topics! This year our Project Based Learning topic will be centered around learning about the Arctic Tundra.

I feel it is so important to give children a variety of avenues to explore a topic.

The variety of books will allow the students to read about the Tundra habitat and all the animals that have to adapt to live there. For me it is important to include the families on our projects and adventures. The figurines will act as a "class pet" that will go home with the students on a weekly basis. They will be able to draw, take pictures and write about what they did with the animals!
