Expedition Final Product-What's The Cost?
We are in the middle of our expedition and students are working hard on case studies in the core classes. This week we have been working on our final product during CREW times on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Our expedition, "What's the Cost?", students are reseraching and learning information about water quality and the sustainability of good drinking water. Students are also finding details relating to water scarcity here in the US as well as other countries.
In our working groups, students are researching, designing a website to showcase our learning as well as the awareness of water scarcity, creating a fundraiser for collecting drinking water, and designing t-shirts for the awareness of water scarcity.
We will continue to add details as we move through December. PLEASE mark your calendars for Wed Jan 15th for our Celebration of Learning. This will take place after school hours. We will be sharing all of our learning during this time.
