(V ?e The Purpose The Backpack League was designed to engage incoming third through sixth graders through authentic, project-based experiences designed to accelerate reading and math skills. Campers were able to choose their own adventures. Field trips and hands-on learning opportunities took students into the community to learn. Special learning opportunities were offered to students including CrossFit Kids and Culinary Class. Students’ experiences led to many new artifacts for their backpacks – 2394 after the first two weeks! The Backpack League by the Numbers 4 Weeks 23 Adventures 68 Field trips Nearly 1,000 Students 43 Buses 136 Field Trip Volunteers 81 Teachers and Instructional Assistants Reflections and Next Steps Innovation in teaching and learning is deeper learning! - The Backpack League created a space for all involved to take risks, promote active learning, and experience school from a different lens. All means all! - All students were in the classroom during Backpack League, learning alongside their peers. No student was served in a resource room or self-contained. This includes EBD students. Relationships Matter! - Teachers and students have repeatedly commented on the impact of quality leadership and positive relationships (teacher to student, student to student, teacher to teacher). Next year, we are committed to serving even more students.
