Thematic Units

 BVA thematic units may incorporate project-based learning, demonstrations, simulations, and/or community connections. The project part may use multiple approaches: inquiry-based, wherein students work to answer their own questions about a topic; problem-based, they work to solve a problem presented by the teacher; or service-based, wherein students work to help our community while showing understanding of the topic covered. However, the scope and format of a project is always designed to match the learning needs and developmental abilities of the students.
