Description: One of our fifth-grade classrooms houses authentic learning experiences through problem based learning  and technology, while building confident, resourceful 21st century learners. In her classroom, Leanna Hedges, uses  flipped and blended teaching strategies, as well as  various modes of media to enhance learning objectives. For example,  students collaborate and share ideas through blogging on Edmodo and Kidsblog. Currently, the students are researching force, motion, and electricity by working for a fictitious company that has requested they build a prototype for a new Exploration Park on the Regions of Virginia.
