My Project

The students in our Kindergarten classes engage in a Project Based Learning curriculum. One of their units focuses on community helpers. After meeting with different community helpers, learning how they help our community function, reading books, and writing about some, the students showcase their learning by presenting all of their learned information to a public audience, with a focus on who they want to be when they grow up. Wouldn't it be great if the students were able to dress & role-play possible future career opportunities while presenting? This will only be possible with the generosity of donors!
