Goal

I want to provide my class the opportunity to learn deeper thinking and logic skills. I want to be able to provide my students the ability to complete projects based on the Florida Standards to help think deeper (project based learning).  

 

What will be done with my students

I want my students to love learning and thinking. In order to help to me do that there is one thing I need, resources! :)

These books will help me two fold. The resource books (teacher books) will give me well planned lessons to use with my students. These lessons include project based learning, where my students will research how to solve real world problems and create products. They will learn the "standards" while actively applying them to a real life scenario, which will increase engagement and help them to remember what they are learning about.

The books for the students will allow them to research and learn the information they need without me "giving" it to them. This is the learning they remember, when they discover it for themselves! When the teacher acts a guide and allows the students to collaborate with each other, try things out, and discover, students excel! That is what I want to give my students! :)

I like the quote:
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn” (Benjamin Franklin).

My goal is to involve my students in learning, let them take ownership, and discover things! 

 

Benefits to my students

Increased engagement in content standards. Increased mastery of standards due to hands on application of learning. Increased attendance and increased test scores.
