Project-Based Learning II with Layali Eshqaidef
As a recap and follow-up to the same workshop from 2020, Layali Eshqaidef will help Arabic educator participants explore more options for project-based learning. This time, projects can be all online, hybrid, or in-person. Teachers will be given time and guidance to initiate themed projects and get the groundwork started for a multi-week project plan that students of any age will enjoy and appreciate. In 2020, participants created a board book about an Arab scientist, an allergy-conscious Arab restaurant menu, and a song about Arab culture. How will you be creative this time?
Use the Project-Based Language Learning Project Blueprint to help you think through your project and to serve as a customizable model for other teachers (if you choose to share it!).
