Flying Cloud Institute brings hands-on science learning to Berkshire schools

From Spectrum News 1 —

Tuesday afternoon’s lesson in Dave Edson’s 7th grade science class at the W.E.B. Du Bois Middle School wasn’t just an ordinary lesson. It was part of a series of lessons taught by a local education nonprofit called the Flying Cloud Institute.

“We come into a school, and we teach out the science, technology, and engineering Massachusetts state standards through hands-on investigations, explorations,” said Maria Rundle, Flying Cloud Institute’s executive director. “And then, we bring in a creative artistic experience to help the students make visible their learning.”
