Now that the Old Town Academy campus is ready, our teachers can finish creating their Active Learning Zone curricula.

• This means sharing all learning goals (schedules, project checklists, guidelines, due dates) with students and parents in visual, at-a-glance, progress trackers;
• It means teaching students to use those trackers to set their own goals, plan their work, and grade themselves.
• It means keeping parents informed on every student’s progress toward those goals using each student’s online learning journal.

This is a huge project, much delayed due to construction pressures and restrictions (no access to classrooms or building); but it begins today with a first installment: The Kindergarten Weekly Schedule.
