Blockborough Box City Lessons

This week's class was held online. Felt kinda funny not having Dr. Meier in the classroom to get us up and moving and doing something fun, but it was also a nice change to finish classes a little earlier than usual to get home to prepare dinner and eat before 7 p.m.!

The question posted by Dr. Meier was a good one. What to do with a Box City in our own classrooms. I think the possibilities are nearly limitless. We would only be limited by our own imaginations. (And of course the level of our students.)

But, there were some GREAT ideas posted by my fellow classmates. I really look forward to using this idea in my own classroom! It will be soooo much fun to use this model for teaching about community, history, mapping, and all manner of things. Math can be incorporated. Language Arts can be incorporated. Science can be incorporated. Gosh....like I said, limitless!!!!
