RACE, NECAP & STEM, Oh My!

Week 2 is under way!  

On Tuesday, students presented their "All About Me" projects, then wrote a constructed response reflection on the prompt, "How does getting to know each other build community and a sense of belonging (use examples from our first days together in your response)?"  This was a nice way to transition into NECAP prep with constructed response writing and the RACE model!



On Wednesday, we began our Student-Directed 21st Century Thematic Unit Planning by brainstorming questions about our first big theme, Government, Citizenship & Economics.  In the afternoon, students were introduced to the idea of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) Learning by tackling a design challenge.
