ZAP Garden Project Fall ‘24
When you collect all of these learning experiences in one place, a curriculum emerges: by subject and true to progressive tenets of education, by units that involve cross-curricular connections. During the winter of 2023/24 Sussex teachers took interdisciplinary teaching and learning to a new place with the first Collaborative Showcase. The CS is an all-school celebration of learning that promotes the ideas of student-engaged assessment. It positions students as leaders by empowering them to take the lead in their learning and communicating it to their peers and parents. The CS is a culmination of the 6- week collaborative block and creates a space for a public exhibition of core academics paired with the arts and PE. Through the CS, we have an opportunity to showcase our progressive education elements, approach, and outcomes and to connect with families. It was wildly successful and the showcase has become a landmark of progressive assessment in the school year.
