The Italian Restaurant Project: Lessons of Restructuring.
McBride, Mary Ellen
Educational Leadership, v52 n8 p64-66 May 1995
Project learning, with community and school staff assistance, helped a fifth-grade class transform the school lunchroom and their own behavior. A $2,500 Alcoa grant spearheaded an Italian restaurant project. Children served on five committees: public relations and advertising, management, art and design, planning and budgeting, and research. The result: a well-decorated, pleasant, orderly dining area. (MLH)
