Focus from the CLC Link : Netagamiou - Creating a Community Story

27 March 2012

Netagamiou students create books about their community. It is a multidisciplinary community-based learning project.  The students go out into the community to do their research during, for example Social Studies, then work on the content during Language Arts classes, doing drawings during Art class and if applicable translating it during French class.   Once the book is assembled and printed, they are able to sell them to the community. Many other activities are derived from this project, such as Readers Theatre style presentations of the books by videoconference to other CLCs during annual Family Literacy Week and Salon du Livre celebrations, during the story hour sessions for preschoolers and during local events such as the Chevery Festival of the Arts, Conference & Trade Show.
