Students will explore Spectacle Island while participating in several activities that promote teambuilding and a sense of community. Students will use Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) to discuss images and hike to the summit of Spectacle Island’s south drumlin. Using historical images, observation skills and clues within the landscape, students work together to assemble a timeline of Spectacle Island’s modern history and explore the concept of community and how individuals can come together to create lasting change. Additionally, students engage in a team challenge where communication, trust and cooperation are reinforced and reflected upon.
