Students will learn together, collaborate on projects, work as a group or independently, make and create. Class themes will be Nature's Neighbor and Elements of City Design. See description below: Open gym is self directed. Students can choose with whom to socialize and what to play. Activity rotation will be put together by our teachers. We will either do whole group activities, small group activities, homeroom-based activities, or a blend of all/ any. Class Rotations​ Nature's Neighbor: As we make our way through winter and into spring, students will work through a seasonal nature study course with environmental science components. Each class will focus on a different topic exploring the how’s and why’s of our ever changing natural world, enabling us to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be nature’s neighbor.   Elements of City Design: As we go through the semester, we will look at both modern cities and cities through time, learning about what elements are necessary for a successful city. Working individually and in groups, students will have the opportunity to design their own cities and communities. Our learning community will help plan the course of the semester as students are encouraged to take the lead of the class to learn, research and teach together.
