Welcome to our Blog

 Seeking to build community, connection and create powerful learning experiences, the Yonkers Public School librarians are collaborating with high school content teachers to implement a trans disciplinary project encompassing math, science and social studies. Since most of children are not receiving in person instruction, many students are disenfranchised, out of touch and somewhat depressed with the current health restrictions and social distancing requirements. They do not feel connected and life is all about connection.

 

This project will directly draw upon the expertise and participation of four veteran teachers, who each specialize in a different academic focus. Project Geocache will foster research skills, reinforce content knowledge and teach advanced technology proficiency.  By writing about their quarantine experiences, emotions and outlook on the world, students will create personalized primary sources to be shared now and forever.
