進行中 - 80日間で世界一周の旅

Students will learn the key facts as we take a trip around the world. Each week we will discover the capital, special landmarks, fun facts, and other interesting and important information in the current country we are visiting. 

THIS CLASS IS DESIGNED WITH THE STUDENTS HAVING A VOICE IN WHICH COUNTRY THEY WANT TO VISIT. EACH CLASS SECTION DECIDES WHICH COUNTRIES THEY WANT TO VISIT AND WE VISIT THE COUNTRIES BASED ON THE WISHES OF THE STUDENTS IN EACH SECTION. There are about 200 countries and it is nearly impossible for a student to visit each and every one of the counntries, so this is why each class, the students in those classes get to decide where they want to go. Each week, the students decide where they want to go the next week and are reminded at the beginning of the week in the classroom where we are visiting. This, also, allows for new students to see the country for the week. 

AGAIN: EACH SECTION IS ON A DIFFERENT COUNTRY AND IS CHOOSING WHERE THEY WANT TO VISIT EACH WEEK. EACH STUDENT HAS A VOICE. 

This class is designed for students to enter the class at any point in the ongoing status because each week will be a new country. Students will receive information prior to class on which country we will be traveling into. Each student can then research information they find interesting and/or important to bring to class. 

This class will be interactive as each student has the ability to discover information about the country and share the information with the other classmates. In fact, it is encouraged for each student to bring a discovery to class. When each student is allowed a voice, in addition to the teacher, the wealth of information can be great. This will be an exciting adventure. 

I like to be a hands-on-to-learning teacher. This class is not about the teacher. The students are the focus and will guide the course. The teacher is just the facilitator. For this class, there is no prior knowledge required to attend this class.
