Women's History Biography Project

Ms. Dephouse and Mr. Broshar, together with Ms. Tarleton, have launched an exciting new project in the sixth grade.  The sixth graders were given a partner, and both students have been reading a biography of the same famous and influential woman.  Today, the partners had a chance to sit down together and talk about that woman and what they have learned.  Beginning next week, the pairs of students will be filming a mock interview in which one student poses as a reporter and the other poses as the influential woman.  We will share the videos as a whole group after spring break.  Students were excited to meet today to begin brainstorming and planning the videos.  We heard lots of good discussion about interesting and famous women in history!
