The last couple of weeks some 4th graders have completed their biography projects! Their assignment was to choose a Who Was/Who Is book, do some research over their famous person, and create a book of information to present to their classmates. They were also given the opportunity to dress up or bring a prop that represents something from their famous person's lifetime! Check them out.... Way to go 4th graders!!!
