My kiddos received their first Scholastic books this past week. I let the kids pick from 5 different book selections for September.” - Ms. Betthauser, 5th Grade, Warrens

Today in Social Studies Students were researching different topics that revolve around the Constitution. They chose a random topic and had to find five facts on that topic. Once they finished their research they created and decorated a poster to show why their topic is important for us as Americans!
