With so much knowledge being thrown at my little ones, remembering it all can be overwhelming. However, if they help create and search for photos or information on their own or with their peers and then have it placed in the room for reference, the knowledge becomes more valuable, and they will retain it or use it to have collaborative conversations with peers without the help of the teacher. When students have projects on the wall created by them, there is pride in that, and, as a result, learning is more enjoyable and memorable. This method of self-directed learning is priceless because the students seek out and use what is in the room created by them. Standard W.K.8 states that students will with guidance and support from adults, recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer a question. I believe this project will help them achieve that and so much more.
