This week we asked the question: What’s the point of school?
Most kids in the world have difficulties getting a good education. We are the fortunate ones. We have schools that have so much and yet a lot of the time, we don’t really know why we have to go to school or why school is good for us.
In this mini unit, we will look at schools around the world, our own school, and most importantly as ourselves, “How can we connect to school and make the most of our education?”
The project: “I wonder what it’s like to go to school in ________?”
- choose a school in a country other than Canada
- develop questions to ask about this school
- research these questions and present your findings in an interesting way
Presentations will be on Monday, Jan 11th
