To increase collaboration and student engagement across its five learning commons, Discovery Elementary School of Grand Forks, N.D., set out to create a flexible learning environment in which students can work with all teachers within their respective grade levels. Within the school, each grade level incorporates classroom teams centered around a collaborative learning space and utilizes a student-led approach. Students are no longer tied to “one classroom, one teacher.”
Working with MeTEOR, the school added 21stCentury furniture, equipment, and technology to its physical location.
“There’s this vibe when you walk into school,” said first-grade teacher Michelle Gregoire. “Our students are trying new things and teachers are encouraging them to think ‘outside’ of what school used to be just five years ago. It’s exciting.”
