Dear Parents, Over the next few weeks second grade will begin a major project over a historical figure. Your child will be responsible for picking one historical figure to research and present for our “Living Museum” in the Golbow library on Wednesday February 22, 2017. They will begin researching an online database and with various library books starting on January 30th. On Wednesday February 22, 2017, they will present their historical figures in the “Living Museum” so they will need to bring props and an outfit representing their figure. (For example: A student representing Walt Disney could wear a suit and bring drawings of cartoons.) Parents will be allowed to visit and press their “buttons” to hear students speak about their historical figure. Students will do all required research at school. Thank you for your support! 2nd Grade Teachers |
