Learning By Design provides curriculum material and coordination with the classroom teacher or team for up to four classes per day. Each program is co-taught by the Learning By Design Program Director and the classroom teacher. In this four-day workshop, students explore play spaces, design, draw plans to scale of.
Students study ancient building methods and use common materials to create model structures.
This event is a multi-disciplinary, experiential approach to community awareness, planning, and design. Single classes, multiple grades, or whole schools work together to design and build a model town from the ground up. Based on an award-winning curriculum, Box City encourages students to study their own city or town, define what makes a good city, and take responsibility for their decisions.
