GLO Project: Introduction Videos to Students in Cartagena, Colombia
|
WHAT IS GLO?
Global Leadership Odyssey (GLO) is a semester-long elective for 6th, 7th and 8th grad students. As global citizens, students will work collaboratively to design and implement a mulit-week service learning project that reflects a global issue within our community. Students will learn about geography, history, and culture through cooking, art, field trips, project-based learning, relationships and service learning. GLO directly addresses the MMCS goals of School Life as Real Life, Universal Empathy, and Creative Thinking. |
INTRODUCTION VIDEOS
Our first GLO Project is to begin correspondence with students at Bertha Gedeon de Baladí, a 1st - 11th grade school in Cartagena, Colombia. I had the great pleasure to work with these students in July where I learned so much about beautiful country, beautiful city, beautiful school, and beautiful selves. Their teacher, Rosalia Mendoza, and I are excited about working together so that her students can improve their English and our students can develop practice the following global competencies:
