PROJECT for 6th graders

Last project for our 6th graders before we wave goodbye to them and wish them all the best in High School! The project was to choose an outstanding person in any field who is no longer alive but who they will always admire. The students worked in small groups and made a poster presenting that person to the rest of their classmates. On the poster they included information about that person's life, their achievements and why they will always remember them. Take a look, their work is quite impressive!
