4th Grade Students Study Their Heritage

Fourth grade students recently wrapped up their Where We Are in Place and Time IB unit.  Students studied the central idea, “Sharing personal histories fosters intercultural connectedness.” by interviewing a classmate and then presenting on their similarities and differences. Students presented in a variety of ways including posters and Power Point presentations. Students learned that be learning about our own heritage as well as others' heritage, we become more open-minded.  We can find things we all have in common and celebrate our differences.
