PROJECT OVERVIEW
Get Into Your
Locker!!!

- Classification. Can you hear the groans.?
This word often
causes students to turn their brains off. It doesn't seem
relevant, yet it is one of the most universally useful; important
and applied concepts.
- Students will investigate
the concept of classification; they will apply their
understanding to an area near and dear to their academic lives:
their lockers
- Students must
keep books, papers, pencils, personal items, jackets, clothes for physical education,
art suplies, and
backpacks in a
very
small space.
- They have two to
three minutes between
classes to find materials for their subsequent class, talk to their
friends, and jetison unneeded items.
- These constraints demand
a highly efficient system. Get into your locker to create one!
This project was
