Grade 3 Students Building Knowledge, Celebrating What Makes Us Unique

During Hispanic Heritage month third grade students have been learning about Sonia Sotomayor, the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice in Library class with Ms. Dooher. The Library teacher read the book Just Ask, written by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, and discussed how our differences make us stronger as a class. T

The students extended their learning to the MakerSpace classroom where they participated in a challenge called The Tower of Knowledge. This activity challenged the students to build a tower of books, symbolizing Sonia Sotomayor's love of learning, using only books and index cards. The challenge required students to work as a team, plan together, explain their ideas, listen to their classmates, and continuously revise their original plan. Learning together and having so much fun!
