To celebrate the end of their American Revolution unit, our young historians transformed the gym into a colonial gathering. From the icy streets of the Boston Massacre to the high-stakes Battle of Bunker Hill, students proudly read their original non-fiction pieces to a full house of parents.
The atmosphere was electric, some students donned tricorn hats and colonial gowns, and our 4th-grade teachers couldn't resist joining the fun!
A huge thank you to our parent community for your incredible support. Having you there to cheer on these budding authors truly brought history to life!
