Josh and Andrea continue the PBL Project Blitz series where once a month, they highlight a PBL project by veterans in the PBL classroom. 

In this episode of the PBL Project Blitz, we hear from Noah Klein (@MrKleinAIC), an Instructional Coach at  Academy @ Shawnee (@Shawnee Academy) in Jefferson County Public Schools (@JCPSKY) in Louisville, KY. For this episode, Noah shares a project from his time in his 12th grade English classroom in which his students addressed the question, “Where does my food come from?” This food literacy project had students explore English, Math, and even Culinary Arts standards. Through research into ingredients and nutrition, Noah and his class partnered with local farmers as well as a local restaurant to create a nutritious dish to include on the restaurant's menu. Throughout this project, his students learned real-world skills such as utilizing ingredients to make a dish, as well as communication skills with their various community partners to create the best possible product and to sell their idea. Enjoy this delicious episode of the PBL Playbook Project Blitz Series!

Stay tuned for more awesome projects as the PBL Project Blitz series continues every month!
