A Fully Integrated Experience

This week at our school is International Festival/Multicultural Fair week. For about two weeks in the winter, our entire school learns about various countries and that learning occurs across subjects and grade levels. It's one of the most exhilerating times for me as a teacher. There are those who complain about how much work it is, but they do acknowledge how the level of immersion is maximally effective at helping children learn. I wish every day could be like that in our school. Here are some of our activities in Technology classes, along with some videos of classes in action:
