Over the last 5 years 5th grade classrooms from around the United States have raced across the country learning geography, social studies, science and math. Each year has been a new race. This years Great Race theme is "Island Paradise” students will race from Key West, FL to the Hawaiian Island of Maui. Here is a brief overview of the project. Fifth grade classrooms from around the nation will race from Florida to Hawaii. Each class will be a team and the team that gets there the quickest, spending least amount of money, stopping at all the cultural and geographically historical places given to them will be the winners.
