Click on the Posters below to learn more about the Project Based Learning for Grades 5-8:

Natick Educators in Grades 5-8 designed and implemented Project Based Learning units with a focus on Student Engagement and Agency and 21st Century Skills: Deep Content Knowledge, Communication, Collaboration, Crtical Thinking and Creativity. All teachers took part in this initiative this year. Some took courses through Natick or else ware such as the Buck institute, Northeastern, MIT, or with vendor partners such as Discovery Education. The Following PBLs represents some of these projects where the teachers who designed them took part in documenting their experience and participating in a Gallery Walk and Hackathon Protocol for improving on them for future years.
