Our project is the creation of a Memorial Rock River Garden. This project will be carried out through multiple classes, with students critically evaluating what they feel should be memorialized, whether it be histrocial events, influential people, or personal reflections. Through this project, students will better understand the importance of history and community. The resources we will need are rocks large enough to paint inscriptions on and paint with sealer that will hold up to the weather as it will be outside. Each student will paint a stone with their memorial tribute that they will add to the river, creating a Memorial Rock River Garden for the school and community to enjoy and reflect on.
