Take 20 motivated educators, a principal dedicated to providing professional growth opportunities, and a couple of dozen plastic shoe boxes. What you can end up with is a dynamic, collaborative workshop to create engaging inquiry-based learning experiences for students in grades Pre-K through 5!
Jo Lynn and I really enjoyed meeting the teaching teams from Nazareth, and sharing our experiences creating and using Discovery Boxes with them. As always, we came away with a deep appreciation for the collaborative culture among teachers. Boxes made at Nazareth included a wide range of topics chosen to support grade level curriculum, such as symbols of the U.S., presidential election, several country studies, stars, fire safety, apples, and an author study of E. B. White.
