Uptown Classrooms in Action
An Innovation Hour sneak peek as students wrap up their first trimester!
In Ms. Jenn's cardboard engineering elective class, students applied principles of mechanics and design to create personal projects using gears and electrical components. The program successfully integrated hands-on building with technical skills development.
In Ms. V's dance elective class, students explored a variety of contemporary choreography and popular dance trends. Following guided tutorials and student-led selections, they mastered and performed new routines throughout the trimester.
For their final project, students designed and choreographed their own original dances, performed either solo or in groups. This project-based learning experience encouraged students to collaborate, select approved music, and reflect on their creative process.
Uptown students will transition to their new Trimester 2 electives following the Thanksgiving holiday, exploring different subjects and skills!
