On Tuesday, August 25th, we will be kicking off our very first project, I Am Awesome, which will take place between the dates of 25 August to 15 September. During this Social Studies based project your child will discover more about themselves and who they are and how they relate to specific Native American groups.
The four C's will be focused on during this project, collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking. This project contains both individual and team assignments to be completed by students. We are very excited to see what your child creates.
