 Relevant Teaching Through CBL
The Challenge Based Learning Project that we put together for our 8th grade students was intense and often difficult, but well worth the effort.  Our students stepped up and did an outstanding job.  The results were gratifying because it proved that when students are given choice and direction, they soar.

"​I really liked this project and feel like we should do more projects like this. It really helped with my research and collaboration skills. It was fun and also challenging. I also liked how you gave us the freedom to make sure that we got it done on our own.​"    -student   ​

"I felt that the immigration project is a really good project. I feel like it is a big project but it's worth it in the end. Because without it, no one in the school would worry about immigration and how big it is in this world and how it changes our lives. It is just really good to know."
