Social Studies

Each month we focus on an American Hero with engaging picture book biographies and arts integration experiences. We paint with inspiration from Georgia O'Keeffe and Alma Thomas, we  explore adventures in the universe with John Herrington and other NASA astronauts, and we make peace posters inspired by Ben Shahn.  We  sing songs inspired by heroic Audrey Faye Hendricks and others written by Irving Berlin and Woody Guthrie.  We finish with books, bats, and butterflies with Yuyi Morales, and in  April we share our learning on the stage in words, song, and movement.
