Classroom Co-Creators | Project-Based Learning

Put students at the center of your classroom design *literally* with this project-based learning opportunity!

GET THE ACTIVITY

What does your classroom say about your students?

When we design our classrooms, we often put a whole lot of ourselves and our preferences into the design, but what happens when students create a classroom design that they think is best for themselves? That is exactly what we are exploring with this 'Classroom Co-Creators' project.

The Assignment

'Classroom Co-Creators' puts the students in charge of deciding how the classroom should be set up. They will audit the classroom's use and needs, and then design a space that they believe will work best for both the students and the teacher.

Project Overview

This project plan will take you through each piece of this project, and give you ideas for supporting students as they work. Remember, this is a student-led project, so the teacher is simply the guide on the side, but that doesn't mean we aren't giving you a step-by-step plan for how to help them move forward.😀

Fundraising Ideas

To fully implement the students' design, fundraising may be needed as some of their ideas may go beyond the resources you currently have in your classroom. This should not scare you; rather, fundraising for the classroom can be a lot of fun. Especially, when it is student-initiated! Here's a few ideas to get you started!

Handouts + Resources

Although this is a project-based learning opportunity, we still want to help students focus, so we have provided a variety of handouts for organizing thoughts, auditing the classroom, and making decisions as a group.

Reflecting on Process and Product

Growth Mindset anyone? We believe honest reflection on both process and product are what make for the best growth during a project. That's why we've included reflection handouts that cover both.

Engage + Empower Your Students...

Giving students agency to make decisions in the classroom is a great step toward helping them see what kind of impact their ideas can have. This is only the beginning! Get the ENTIRE kit of resources today for the steal-rate of just $12!
