Description
Driving Question:
What is an effective island design?
Description:
Throughout this project, students will imagine that a new island has been formed and that they have been hired by the government to document the island.
Students can create a three dimensional model of the island, as well as other varied tasks. They use math, science, social studies, and writing skills to sketch and map out this new land. Students examine current articles on the controversy of creating an island and work together to devise a plan to keep the island and its inhabitants safe. They have multiple opportunities for problem solving, collaboration, and reflection.
