Connect · Week 3 — Building the Capstone
Objectives
Wildlings design and build their Year-End Capstone, a project that draws together threads from across the year. The question is 'How do I show, in one piece of work, who I've become this year?'
Materials
capstone materials (varies by project), feedback forms, presentation planning sheet
Activities
Wildlings finalize a capstone concept that integrates at least two circles' worth of learning. Dedicated work time allows building, writing, or preparing the capstone piece with coach support. Peer feedback sessions help refine the capstone before final presentation. Logistics for the end-of-year showcase are planned with the group. Wildlings rehearse how they'll explain their capstone to an audience.
Coach notes
Let the capstone format be flexible — object, portfolio, performance, or project — as long as it connects real threads.
