πŸ—³οΈβ€οΈπŸ€πŸ’™ 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! ⭐
