Flyertime Fun

This week as I observed Flyertimes, I saw some great examples of what makes this time valuable for kids.  Whether it's a focus on relationship building, service, or leadership, Flyertime has value.  As you look at what's happening in the variety of classrooms below, it is clear that Flyertime offers students the opportunity for non-traditional learning.  As we continue to look at how we spend "Flyertime," consider what makes it good and how do we capitalize on those pieces to make it even better?

Think Win Win - it's a bracket!

Students make doggie blankets instead of blankets for the homeless when donations are limited.

This group adjusted their plan based on limited donations, demonstrating problem-solving skills.

Geocaching is an opportunity to try something new in Flyertime.

Students get online to build their perspective of the community through geocaching.

Student-created Flyertime activities; through brainstorming, students take ownership for their own class.

Appreciating those who support us, students make a collaborative thank you card for the Board of Education, and everyone has a role!

Supporting our seniors - students design the placements for the monthly Senior Associates breakfast.

Students learn about marketing as they design their service learning project.
