My Project

Immigration is a big unit for fourth graders. We are going to create a team project on immigrants coming to our state. Each of the six groups will have one form of flexible seating. We have been working all year on team work, and how to work with one person in charge each session- the seats will allow this leader to change at each session. They will use all of the other supplies to create their final presentation with immigration. Each group will have a poster board as part of this.
