Mayfield Junior School: “Creative Learning: 8th Grade History”
How well does one know the U.S. Constitution?
Mayfield Junior School’s intrepid 8th graders held an interactive Constitution exhibit recently as the final part of a learning project in Ms. Kelley-Lossada’s U.S. History class. Their main objectives were to learn about the U.S. Constitution is a manner best suited to their personal learning style and then show or “exhibit” a mastery of basic principles, elements and document evolution since inception.
The result? Students developed games, comic strips, interactive quizzes and even original music to bring their efforts to life ( and to challenge the knowledge of faculty and classmates). Care for a go at Continopoly anyone?
