Inspiring Lessons
Students created cross-curricular lesson plans based on Success Criteria and a rubric we created in class.

The lessons were all very well done and were interesting to read. Planning and teaching is an ongoing process and in order to help students reflect, I made some notes about possible areas for improvement. There were some areas for all to consider in planning lessons in the future. We discussed these in class.
Many students created very innovative, engaging lessons and some have agreed to let me share them here as inspiration.

Your Life's Purpose
Last week, we watched Adam Leipzig's "How to Know Your Life's Purpose in Five Minutes". It's a great watch and an awesome exercise.
Several students wrote their own life purposes. Here are some:
Christine:
"I'm Christine. I work to re-define the term 'success' for my students. They need help relizing their value beyond grades. I give them confidence and help bring out their full potential."
