It's all about Engagement

One of Discovery Academy’s cornerstones is the daily, school-wide use of Kagan Cooperative Learning.  This research-based practice is not only an instructional strategy that engages ALL students, but is an integral part of our climate.

By implementing the Kagan structures, classrooms become environments where students work together in heterogeneous groups to solve problems, create projects, share knowledge, and demonstrate learning.  Students benefit academically, socially, and emotionally, by actively participating in meaningful learning activities that build social skills and embrace diversity.
