I think your project is a wonderful learning experience for secondary schools. Teachers sharing projects is a good idea. I think the Middle Schools could use this kind of teaching. Getting out of school and into the other areas of their environment with guidance could help promote learning. They have so much energy and they need to be molding themselves to use it wisely.
Awesome job!

This presentation definitely shows that a student who is totally absorbed and involved in an assignment will learn so much more about the subject. Having the students follow all through the 12 weeks incorporating the the "watershed" into all their subjects makes for great learning and terrific retention of the subject matter. Team teaching is a must and cooperation between teachers and students is a must. Having a hands on experience is truly the best way to experience anything.
