"Why is it important to learn from each other?"-Shannon
What a great question Shannon! This was the main point of our social studies lesson today. The students talked about how people can be different and how people can be similar. The students took a survey asking each of the classmates questions like, "Do you like sports?" "Do you like to dance?" "Are you a boy?" "Are you a girl?" The students had to shake hands and say hello before asking the questions.
At the end of the lesson, Loren answered Shannon's question by saying sometimes you can learn important things from people you didn't know before.
Tomorrow we will be creating our collage quilts! Please look for photos of those soon!
