PBL Project

For the past week, Kaitlin, Melissa and I worked on our PBL Video Project. It was a lot of fun and I really hope to find a way to incorporate that into a classroom. I did however come up with some good ideas for field trip sand projects based on the Civil War. We are basically in the heart of Civil War battlefields and realized that not enough schools utilize this resource enough. These are basically free field trips that are highly educational. I think the students would love going out and exploring/ discovering a place such as Stones River Battlefield and learning about what happened there 140+ years ago. One project I thought about doing would be to have the students pick out some names from the grave and see if they can find any information about those names and where they came from and what group they fought for. I think this would be a fun project as well, just to see what the students could come up with.
