American Hero Inquiry Unit
Students explored American Heroes and read many books about lots of American Heroes. After a week of learning about American Heroes, students joined groups to focus on one American Hero. Students had one deep question and 4 other questions they were responsible for answering. Below are pictures of our presentations and if they created anything using technology, I attached it, too.
