We have been learning all about Our Nation's Heroes this month.
After reading President Obama's story written for his daughters, "Of Thee I Sing," our first graders had so many questions about these inspiring heroes that have shaped our history.
We have delved into learning more about their lives, and considering the great impact they had on our country.
Learning all about these heroes has inspired us to shape our history. We will continue to learn more about these heroes, and continue to dream big!
Many of us have taken an interest in learning more about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s life, and are reading various books in Guided Reading. We all enjoyed reading "Martin's Big Words," and were so impressed and inspired by Martin's perseverance and commitment to bring peace and justice to all.
We read "Art From Her Heart," and learned about Clementine Hunter's beautiful art she created to give others insight into life on a plantation. We were inspired to create our own art by making self-portraits!
