The Big Picture includes projects. How can teachers track the progress of dozens of projects by groups of students? Omar Vasile says, "Use a project board"

The Littky and Big Picture message is simple:


treat each student the same but differently.

let the kid find and follow a passion or interest.

Use mentors

build projects that touch the interests of the students.

Keep asking questions.


Omar Vasile does many of these "distinguishing" elements in his classes in Florida.

Here is a series of slides shows that are laid over a recorded phone call.  Omar's recollections will be turned into a book.


Let's show teachers, parents, principals and students that SCHOOL WORK can be engrossing, fun and inspiring.   This is deep.
