A Project-Based Learning (PBL) approach to education.

Children have natural curiosities about the world around them. They learn to love education through learning activities relevant to their world. The age-appropriate creative engagement of skills interwoven with topics that grab a child’s attention and engage their mind, is our goal.

Education of our children has become a cookie cutter approach. The curriculum is presented on a timetable, consisting of students on the same page, studying the same concept, at the same time.

It is important to engage students in a 21st century method.

The goal is for students to learn in a positive exciting new way by sparking their interest, engagement, and deep involvement in units of study with age-appropriate skills embedded in the topic. We believe a child should be excited about their learning.

Children of all ages find excitement in project-based learning. The engagement of students, through interesting topics allows for deep learning.

Project-based learning engages students through the following attributes.

• Allows for students to explore real-world issues
• Provides a balance of freedom and structure – voice and choice
• Engages students as active participants in authentic learning experiences
• Provides intellectual challenge that promotes creative thinking, higher-level thinking, and problem-solving skills
• Builds on prior knowledge to bridge present and future learning
