In less than 2 weeks, the 6th grade will go on a field trip to the National Museum of Mexican Art and the Frank Lloyd Wright Studio. This trips correlates directly with what the student's have been studying in their Spanish and Art classes.
As my school joins the maker and stem movement, more and more of collegial conversations focus on student projects as problem solving. The need for students to understand and to manipulate materials is imperative. One such project incorporates all of these ideas. It is the origami paper brain model by Martin Pyka. Examples below are from my 6th gr. class. http://www.martinpyka.de/paperbrain/
