LEARNING WITH US
Project Based Learning
Honey Creek Community School’s curriculum emphasizes the integration of thought and experience – thinking and doing, theory and practice. Learning is centered on themes and projects that have meaning and purpose in the students’ lives. Adults (teachers, parents and other community members) with various kinds of expertise share in the teaching of the children. Teachers guide students as they learn through hands-on activities, both individually and in groups.
Honey Creek students are motivated to ask questions,
exhibit curiosity, think critically and seek new opportunities to learn. Students integrate and synthesize information from a variety of sources in a variety of contexts. At Honey Creek, students learn to work effectively in teams, appreciate differences and diversity, and learn to communicate effectively.
The ultimate goal for Honey Creek students is to be ready to contribute to their communities productively by being technologically literate, using life management skills, and be successful in their career, family, and friendships while being sensitive and mindful.
