Throughout this project, students will be taking a closer look at the world around them, identifying problems they see, and coming up with ways they can help! The Gates Foundation field trip was the perfect place to start thinking about this. Students were able to think about what problems our world faces, how people around the world go about trying to solve those problems, and what our role in this problem solving might be. Last week, we used our opinion writing to start telling the world about the problems we see and asking for help. This week, we will continue to learn more about world problems, and start thinking about creative ways we can contribute to solving these problems. I have included links to some of the resources we will use to learn more.
