Our learners in Ms. Gmeiner's DK class, created their very own Leaf Men as part of a book they read - The Leaf Man! They took a nature walk, picking up twigs and leaves for their project, and then came back to the classroom to construct their men! It was a perfect story for fall!
The Leaf Man refers to a children's book by Lois Ehlert. It's a whimsical and visually creative story about a figure made of leaves who is blown away by the wind.

Together, they break down how IBB works, why Brandywine uses it, and how it helps strengthen relationships between administration and staff while keeping students at the center of every decision.
