On day three of Project Week 2019, students are fully immersed in understanding their group’s essential question, taking action, asking questions, and learning through their experience.
Gateway to Africa: Morocco Exploration
After a slight delay, students are on the ground in Morocco, beginning their cultural experience and asking the question “What is the danger of a single story” and how has this impacted Moroccan culture and community.
Entrepreneurship in New York City
An entrepreneurial focused group of students are learning about start-ups, economics, and business in New York City. Yesterday they met with Matt Brenner from National Geographic, the Executive Producer of the film Free Solo which recently won an Oscar.
Service Learning through Surfrider
Students had a surf lesson in Rincon, Puerto Rico as they explore the environment and the water that influence Island life and culture through Surfrider.
The Super Natural
Nearby, the Super Natural group is having fun exploring beliefs, legends and all things super natural. Yesterday they had a fun session with the Ouija Board.
Diving In; Exploring the Waters Around Us
Part of learning about our local water ways and our relationship with water in New England included a trip to the US Coast Guard station in New London, Connecticut, and a trip to the Boston Aquarium.
Habitat for Humanity; The Pemi Valley
Also nearby, students have been working hard in partnership with the Pemi-Valley Habitat for Humanity Group. They have built several chicken coups and picnic tables that are for sale at the Plymouth ReStore.
