Lindbergh High School Learns

A quick walk through the halls of Lindbergh High School highlights the innovation mindset that has infused energy into teaching and learning.  Whether it's project/problem-based learning (PBL) models of instruction or grading based on standards, the high school continues to reinvent learning for the 21st Century.  

Students demonstrate their understanding of yeast by designing a game for their peers.  Besides being fun, it also affords them problem-solving skills.  This isn't their first game - using peer feedback from their last design, they work to improve both the content and application of skills. 

Ever hear of ZipGrade?  It's an app that allows you to scan student assessments and get itemized data analysis to inform your instruction.  And, it's only $6.99/year.
In combination with multiple choice responses for ZipGrade, assessments add higher level application skills in a written format.


Math Notebooking:  Students reference both their class notes and use foldables to ensure understanding in their application of skills.

Students learn about efficiency as they experiment with ramp angles and collect data.

When the data doesn't add up, students question their procedure and readjust to ensure accuracy...all on their own!
