Who are these kids and what are they doing?
Teacher JoAnne Sunderman describes the project this way. “Ten McKinley Elementary School 5th Graders have been working since November 2006 on a community service project for the park, the mill, and the school. They are creating child-friendly learning opportunities for the attractions: a brochure for each, a color/activity book, and a book about one-room schools. They will create a packet of information for teachers to use before or after the school field trips.”
Their Community Problem Solving project won the state competition and a national competition. Teachers are JoAnne Sunderman and Jami Schroeder.
