Throughout my work with authentic learning experiences, I find that teachers often ask: Where do I begin? Dayna and Jill have provided a practical guide for teachers, from basic understanding, to step-by-step strategies, to opportunities for self-reflection. This book will help teachers make authentic learning experiences a reality for their students resulting in critical thinkers who love learning both in and out of the classroom! </p> Melinda Springman, Ed.S. / School Principal</p> <em>Natural Curiosity</em> is a wonderful resource for veteran and novice teachers alike looking to provide their students with authentic experiences through Project Based Learning. The book is filled with step-by-step examples for all age ranges. It walks you through the rationale behind providing students with real life experiences, shows you how to apply them to the classroom, and demonstrates how to create projects that are aligned to standards and rich with deep learning. The five stage process is easy to follow and interwoven throughout the book. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in or already using Project Based Learning in their classroom.</p> Jeff Horwitz, Associate Head of School at Chesterfield Day School in St. Louis, MO</p>
