Experiencia de clase

Cities are made up of many smaller neighborhoods, districts, communities, each with their own identity. Cities are complex organisms that have many different parts working together. Let's learn what makes cities work!

Over 8 weeks, learners will each create a design for a city district or neighborhood, making choices on different features and functions, locating them on their own maps that they create.  Each week we will focus on learning about one aspect of cities and how it interconnects with other parts. 

Instructions and ideas for the project will be given each week so learners can continue adding to their design. 

For the last class, learners can present their neighborhood design projects to the class. 

Participating in the design of the built environment is an exciting, empowering endeavor for kids.  Though the project in this class is for an imaginary, aspirational city, the goal is to give learners the knowledge and skills to notice more, analyze and engage in the world around them.

Transportation, Streets & Sidewalks
 The second lesson is about how we get around in cities and all of the different modes of transportation there are.  We consider how the design of streets, sidewalks, and bike lanes affects our experience.

Lección 3:
Green Space & Public Space
 In the third lesson we explore all the ways that green spaces and public spaces are important in cities- from having places to gather with friends and family to helping the city manage its stormwater. 

Project: Save some space for green!  Before learners add buildings to their map, we'll designate some unbuildable land for green and public space.

Lección 4:
Districts, Zoning and Mixed Use
 The fourth lesson is where we start to talk about types of buildings, and how some types are compatible with others and some are not.  We explore how to make a mixed use neighborhood with places to work, play, learn and shop, all within a short walking distance.

Project: Neighborhoods have distinct identities.  Learners will collect ideas about what characteristics their neighborhood will have.
