Project Brainstorming by Team
Brainstorming Projects
This week in class we divided into teams and brainstormed possibilities for our one Major project and our multiple minor projects. As you will see below, we got many options. By Monday of next week we will have narrowed down (with staff help) these options to the ones that will be acted on. A calendar of projects that will be accomplished will be posted on the website. We will try to give you ample time to prepare and possibly help.

14. School Legacy Project – A project to leave a lasting impression on LCE. Legacy projects are gifts left behind that benefit the school as a whole. Examples of legacy projects include: arranging for a mural to be painted in the school gym, planting a tree, starting a bird habitat or installing park benches on the playground. The idea is to choose a project that will survive over time.
