Desks, Goats & 21st Century Skills: What 2nd Grade CAN Look Like

by Sara Mooradian on May 10, 2012

Want to see what’s possible in a classroom today?

Fair warning: when you see what these 2nd graders in a Northern California public elementary school do – you’ll want it for your kids.

A good friend of mine who’s passionate about education shared this amazing video with me and a couple of my friends. I won’t lie when I tell you that a couple of us got teary. It’s amazing.

Check out how these 2nd grade teachers and literacy coaches guide students through a meaningful learning experience using 21st century skills of ‘Critical thinking and problem solving, Communication, Collaboration, and Creativity and innovation’.  All beautifully wrapped up using today’s technology with iPads.

Desks & Goats

I can’t wait to hear about their garage sale and how many desks and goats they were able to provide other students around the world.

So? What did you think?
