A Collaboration Project: Founding Fathers

Do you know what impact our Founding Fathers had on our national government? Well, Ms. Mejia's class has the answer!

Ms. Mejia collaborated with the library to create a fun learning experience for her students.  Ms. Mejia asked the question "How has our Founding Fathers contributed to our national government"?Students were then assigned a specific Founding Father to research.  Following their research, students drew a picture of a monument they would create to represent their Founding Fathers contributions to our national government.  A snapshot of the monument was taken and students used Chatterpix to tell why their monuments show the Founding Fathers contributions.

My favorite student quote during this project: "This was so much better than learning".
