Take a Knee

In the news, there are lots of things that tie in to our current focus on human rights in Social Studies.

Here is our initial class work on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights- so many good ideas!




Today we watched poet and Newbery-winning author Kwame Alexander's video "Take a Knee"- another way to take a stand.

Students were thoughtful and insightful in their reactions to this political protest.

Here is a link to his video: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=18597971 if you are interested- many of them wanted to watch it again.

PS. Spelling for Week 3, this week is now under the assignments tab.
