Project Lead the Way
Students will engage in hands-on, collaborative problem solving focused on real-world challenges. Students will use and stretch their imaginations in brand new ways while connecting their learning to real life!
Goals
Students are introduced to real-world situations through the Project Lead The Way curriculum. PLTW provides standards-based learning opportunities for students to explore and build their knowledge in content areas. Once students have developed their understanding, they are able to work collaboratively to create a solution to their real-world problem.
Learning Experiences
Our current focus is "Design and Modeling". The curriculum allows for students to discover the design process and develop an understanding of the influence of creativity and innovation. They are challenged and empowered to use and apply what they've learned throughout the program to design specific items including a therapeutic toy for a child who has cerebral palsy.
