Thing 5

An amazing concept! An entire building linked by curriculum and interest. It really creates a learning community, both in and outside of the school. As a speech pathologist, it interests me because it allows me to incorporate time-sensitive vocabulary and language tasks into what I am doing with students. It is an overwhelming task to pursue these things on my own, across all academic areas, across so many grade levels. Having the ability to pick/choose which words or topics to include on a weekly basis, as they are being presented, would not only make me a more relevant part of the educational team, but would increase my effectiveness for the students with which I work.
