Jen & I have been very interested in project based learning and all of the Reggio inspired stuff that's going on. We decided to jump into it (well, wade in really) for the last few weeks of school. It's difficult to break away from theme teaching, though. We've been trying some team teaching this week and we're letting the kids work in both classrooms. That has been pretty successful, I think. The other stuff will come. It's just going to take some time to break old habits. I think it's so interesting that my philosophy of teaching continues to change. I could never be a teacher that does the same thing year after year. That's why this project based learning has me so geeked.
