π³οΈβ€οΈπ€π Our 4th graders are experiencing democracy in action!
As part of our Texas History unit, students learned about three influential Texas women: Miriam A. Ferguson, Barbara Jordan, and Ann Richards. After exploring their contributions, students cast their votes for the woman they believed made the greatest impact on Texas!
Students then graphed the results, analyzed the data, and used text evidence to support their choices. What a great hands-on learning experience integrating Texas History, literacy, math, and the voting process! β










π³οΈπ Every vote counts! Our first graders learned about the voting process and put their knowledge into action by casting a ballot for their favorite book! What a fun way to discover that their voices matter while celebrating a love of reading! β€οΈπ









2nd grade students learned about voting and elections. After reading a famous childrenβs book, Pato para Presidente, students casted their votes. Duck π¦ vs el Granjero Brown π¨βπΎ Duck took the win! π₯
