It's been great so far here at Mountain Ridge Middle school. We have met so many incredible teachers, and are starting to get a better idea of how things work around here. Like HTH, MRMS does a lot of projects. One thing that we noticed, though, was that some of the teachers go at it with a different approach: instead of building, and then learning through analyzing; they learn, and then build.
Additionally, we have been working with iLab students and teachers. iLab is a class that was introduced this year. In this class students find and issue, and then through research, and real-world connections come up with a solution. Tonight, those students will be presenting.
I am meeting some people that I really hope I stay in touch with. It's such an induration to see so much change happening!
I commented on Michelle's and Killian's blogs.
