Be The Change 2020
Posted by Ariel Warshaw“Be the change you want to see in the world.” – Mahatma Gandhi
In our Informational Writing unit, fifth graders selected inspiring change-makers to research, report on, and embody. Their historical impact essays were not simply biographies. Instead, our writers explored the societal conditions of their figure’s life, and how those experiences influenced them to act and make a change. The students considered the long lasting legacies these inspirational people have left on our world.
While we had planned to cap off this unit by creating a living wax museum in the Unquowa gym, where students would dress up as their selected figures, the world had other plans – but that didn’t stop us! Despite being apart, we very much came together to create a Virtual Wax Museum for all to enjoy and explore. We hope that you leave our exhibit feeling empowered, inspired, and connected to one another.
