Annalies, Sheli, Ketal, Sylvia and I left Lower Brule yesterday after a wonderful afternoon of presentations. Teachers from Lower Brule and Crow Creek are well on their way to implementing some fantastic projects which are meaningful to their students and community. Teachers really came together to collaborate. Projects included: exploring the sense of self through cultural art and ethnobotany, what food security means and how to improve their community.
We arrived in Rapid City last night and celebrated Ketal's birthday. We set off this morning and traveled through the Badlands to Porcupine Day School. Teachers brainstormed and designed transdisciplinary projects that are really going to excite student learning. Today was a great day. Looking forward to tomorrow...more creativity, further design and continued collaboration.
