Above is a clip from our I Am Poem Lesson
Below are some examples of students' I Am Poem after the lesson. Some of these will be featured in a video during our school's exhibition. |
Accessing History
Throughout this project, students learned the importance of our history in California and how different groups of minorities were effected. We had multiple resources: read aloud, articles, maps, videos, anchor charts, etc. to drive the point of how we as changemakers can learn from our past to better our future. |

Exhibition Preparation
Students practiced with each other constantly to prepare for Exhibition Day! In which they led a presentation to their loved ones about the California's History content they learned from the 1500's to present time. Students shared their knowledge, favorite content topics and ideas of how we as humans could unite together to become California Changemakers because "unity requires more than one to create the change we want to see in this world."- 4th grader.
