How do you approach Independent learning?

The children are allowed to explore their own interests when they pick a focused independent project. The project can be anything of the child’s choosing which they will independently research over a  7 month period, bringing their work to class throughout the process to discuss and gain guidance. The project will then be presented to the group as a 15 minute presentation.
