Plot Speed Dating in action at AMS!
At AMS, learning is active, intentional, and studentโcentered. In Critical Thinking class, students put a creative spin on book talks with Plot Speed Dating after independently reading I Survived novels of their choice.
Every two minutes, students rotated to summarize, question, clarify, and compare texts. Strengthening comprehension, oral communication, and analytical thinking through purposeful peer interaction. The room was buzzing with movement, student voice, and excitement as readers became the experts and learned from one another.
This is what engaged literacy looks like at AMS, rigorous, joyful, and driven by student choice. Shout out to Mrs. Holland!

๐ซWhat have our CTE Career Exploration classes been up to?๐ซ
Students explored the maintenance/operations career pathways by learning some household repairs such as how to replace a bathroom faucet, unclog a sink and repair a leaky faucet. Additionally, students explored and prepared delicious and nutritious chocolate banana smoothies where they learned the importance of consuming a well balanced diet and paying attention to the nutrition labels and how that plays a role in their daily diet.
