9th grade French 2 students officially launched their National French Week Project-Based Learning (PBL) experience inspired by the imaginative worlds of Jules Verne.

“In what ways do Jules Verne’s works reflect humanity’s imagination and its pursuit of discovery and innovation?” This is the question students will be investigating.

They kicked off the adventure with outdoor challenges inspired by Verne’s four legendary works:
🔹 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea — The Nautilus Rescue Challenge
🔹 From the Earth to the Moon — Rocket Launch Relay
🔹 Around the World in 80 Days — Crab Walk Obstacle Course in 80 Seconds or Less
🔹 Journey to the Center of the Earth — The Lava Escape

Students will explore Verne’s visionary ideas in French, then bring them to life through museum-style dioramas and audio recordings in French—to be displayed in Barton’s lobby during National French Week for all to see.

If this year’s National Board Bootcamp was any indication of the support that ALABAMA teachers are receiving for National Board Certification, then this camp was definitely a HOME-RUN! Many thanks to Assistant State Superintendent, Dr. Melissa Shields, The Alabama Regional Inservice Centers, the ALNBCT Network, Alabama State University and AEA for their collaborative efforts to create a truly successful BOOTCAMP! It was my pleasure to attend and present at this year’s camp! This is the reason that

Today, I attended the last session of the 2024-25 CLAS Aspiring School Leaders Academy at Troy University in Montgomery. It was good to network with current and future leaders from across our state. A special thank you to Dr. Demica Sanders and her team at CLAS, as well as the Education Departments from UA and Auburn for their insightful leadership.

We surveyed our students with a Google form and grouped them with classmates who had similar interests. The groups were made up of French, German and Spanish students in an effort to increase collaboration across Barton’s world languages. Similarly, most students were placed in groups who met with a teacher other than their current world language teacher. This offered both a change in scenery and the perspective and guidance of a different instructor.

Take a look at LAUNCH DAY!! The Mobile International Festival served as the LAUNCH to our World Language and Career Prep PBL. Students went on a scavenger hunt using I-pads to collect their research. When we got back to school, students used their festival passports along with a guided Power Point to research which countries have business connections to our port city - MOBILE.
