In preparation to read Jack London’s “To Build a Fire”, Mr. MJ asked students if they could survive in the wilderness. Students used critical thinking skills to build a shelter and pack essential supplies. They will later debate whether knowledge or experience is more important in a survival situation.
At SSIS, our innovative teachers help students open the door to a world of learning experiences both within and beyond the classroom.
