Mrs. Simpson's students at Riddle Elementary have been enjoying the opportunity to complete passion projects. Students fill out a passion project proposal, and once accepted by the teacher, they start researching. Students are given the choice of how they present their learning.
Pictured is a student who recently shared her Canva presentation on pigs. Not only did this student teach the class about pigs, but she also taught them how to appropriately use video within a presentation as a way to further support research.
We are so thankful for students sharing their genius!
