What's it like to pilot a Core Curriculum Unit?
"Perseverence... We actually have to stay with it..." "I'm looking forward to us continuing to collaborate!" "They were able to talk about their thinking" "I learned to be more hands-on." "If you're focused, the kids will be focused." "We had more time to go into a particular topic ... to gain deeper understanding." "They struggled a lot to explain..." "...it feels more connected..." "I'm really into it!" If you are interested in piloting a unit, please contact us.
