Skills for Today
When I reflect upon the important work our staff is doing I’m inspired. The commitment we’ve made to creativity is palpable, and we’re seeking new and innovative ways to put students in the center of their learning. I’m seeing our team amplify student voice while providing kids an authentic audience for their work. Some of the “learning work” our team is involved with includes:
- Genius Hour
- Passion-Based Learning
- 3D Printing
- MakerSpaces
- Redesigning Learning Spaces
- Flipped Instruction
- Social Media as Learning Media
- Project-Based Learning (Cane’s Arcade, etc.)
- Augmented Reality
- Back-Channeling via “TodaysMeet”
Teachers are exploring new ways to help build students capacity to connect responsibly in a digital world. Best of all…we’ve kept a keen focus on the importance of relationships; our students are responding in amazing ways! Our staff has embraced meaningful technology integration as one of our three school priorities. We know that the work we are doing will help students develop skills for today will ultimately help them excel tomorrow.
