Project Ideas
We want kids to be creative about the project ideas including but not limited to performing a science experiment, making a puzzle, riddle, or a story, making an ad, writing a book, preparing a poster, playing a game, watering the seed, developing a magazine, etc. Curriculum consists of projects and activities that are a translation of the concepts found in traditional course books. However, a project may correspond to a number of concepts across different course boundaries.
Kids brainstorm some of these ideas in teams and groups and decide what would most excite them and what would be most creative. These project and activity ideas are then realized through the guidance of facilitators.
Structure
L2L is a project-based, student-driven model for active learners. L2L provides learners access to technology, an active focus on the community, and a student-facilitator ratio of not more than 20 to 1.
L2L offers a learning model based on students’ interests and needs as international academic standards. L2L curriculum addresses educational goals through a project-based model that incorporates individual and group projects, individually-paced math and reading programs, family-connected study, and service learning.
Belief Statatements
- We believe each person can be a self-learner.
- We believe students learn best when they are happily engaged.
- We believe the processes of learning (self-direction, curiosity, research, creativity, cooperation, and self-evaluation) are more important than any exact, fact-based curriculum.
- We believe parent and community involvement enhance learning.
- We believe small school size creates a better learning community.
- We believe PBL allows students to incorporate their natural talents and interests as they prepare to continue on their educational paths.
