I was so excited to see this article written about our final Project Based Learning experience in 2nd grade this year. Thank you Heather for documenting the awesome things our students are doing in the community! If you are interested in learning more about project based learning feel free to comment below.
Camas Ridge Community School Explores Amazon Park Playground Renovations
Kids took a walking field trip to the park and learned about the renovations with Katie Blair-Terrazas, Eugene Outdoors, Park Development Volunteer Coordinator. She told them that later this summer they would see construction equipment and workers move in to the site to remove old and well-used play equipment and the decommissioned wading pool. In their place will arrive new playground structures, improved play area drainage and surfacing, new lawns, walks, trees and park furniture. Happily, our friend the dinosaur will remain to continue marking years of fun at this wonderful playground. Overall, the intent with this playground is to make it as universally accessible and inclusive as possible.
