Reflection 11
As a result of using a project based approach to
teaching, we will be able to build new lessons off of our old ones. Our students will ask questions and continue
seeking answers. The questions the class
forms after a project is complete can be the driving force for the following
lesson. The students will be engaged and
excited to continue learning because their curiosity is driving the curriculum
instead of the other way around.
We can bring our project home by allowing for an
abundance of reflection time once the project was completed. This will allow students to think about their
memories, experiences, artifacts, and souvenirs they have gathered during the
project. We can capitalize on our
investment during this reflection time by critiquing our work, share our
insights, enter a contest, be resources for our peers, and by enjoying our journey.
There are only four different cultures we have available for
our students to study in our project.
The students will be left excited about celebrating the different
cultures. I hope they will have
questions about other cultures. While we
are celebrating our hard work with a feast of multicultural food, we will also
be able to ask more questions and form a second projects based on those
questions.
Good job on the reading reflection. Learning different foods from different cultures is a great way for the students to explore different taste and textures that you don't normally or would normally eat.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job on your reflection! I love the idea of the multicultural food! The kids will love that!!
ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of the multicultural food too! It can really show the students how wide the world is and make them more open minded to other cultures. Really creative idea!
ReplyDeleteI think you learned a lot about PBL and how to incorporate it into your teaching.
