New school project


Idea:
In schools now you start thinking of what you are going to become when you pass to collage or at your senior year. The idea we want to change is that students in our school should have normal school meaning primary, elentary and middle school. Once kids arrive to middle school we want that they choose that they are going to be ours there carrier going to be so they specialize on that. You will have classes like math and English and exploratory but you will concentrate on your future and a specialized person will work with you so you are strong at the subject you choose.

How would support us?
People who would support are idea would be the specialized people like soccer players, layers, artists, business managers who know about their jobs and would like to help people know about what they do and what are the importance of their jobs. Also people like parents who want to support their kids and make them choose a career they really want.
Who would be are obstacles?
Are big problem would be kids who are at the grade to choose on what they would have to specialize and are thoughtful about what they want and still are not interested in a special career . There would be to solutions to this problem. The solutions would be up to the student to either repeat grade and look at every career to see which on they would like more to be dedicated to or either keep on the next grade in normal classes but the problem would be that they would not be taught anymore what each career is about they would just continue ad if it’s a normal school and would receive normal classes but not many opportunities would be given.  If volunteers of specialist are little the second choose would be to get into the action, like if you want to be an actor go to a theater ,  backstage or to a be in a place where there are making a movie or series  and see what’s expected and what you need for this job.

Research:


Here I found out that in the Big Picture schools they are really trying to work with one person at a time or one student at a time so people really get to understand and human qualities also grow up.

he wants a really similar idea of making it specialized not in carriers but in your passions. He aslo wants to encourage a lot that students meet up with profecionals and make sure that they are getting the best education.

they agree with us alot that students should learn about many things that will help in the future and teachers help them by guiding them into a path which will help them alot. also they have tryed to conect learning with real life.

about learning


I think this year was really sucsessfullThis year in english something that was really a expirience that every student dreams of happend! Having sofas, puffs, comffy charies and more really cool benefits for our use we available for us. For me espacially I think it worked a lot because many times before this really cool room you were always disturbed by the chair or the desk or who cold it was and many more but not this year. This year the atmosphere of the room, of the class was a like peacefull enviorment where you felt save! 

A really important thing that really changed me during this year was loving to read. I could now sit and read for hours and I think that this was really a thing we worked out because every class the 20 minutes that made me really like reading. This year was the first one in which tecnology influenced a lot, I think that was really important because tecnology is a really big factor in everyday life and learing for example tech tools which you now help us only for the multiple projects we had in enhlish but also help us to duse them in other clases. This year in english we also worked a lot in groups which helped a lot to learn for our team mates and also find new references that are not always the internet or teacher but people are own age.
