Wild Muir for Kids: A Collection of Short Stories was created by second grade students at Big Pine Elementary School as part of their Wilderness Warriors learning expedition, in which students studied John Muir and other individuals who have made a difference.
This project was designed to support their learning in Expedition (Module) #2: Knowing Myself & My Community. The title of the assignment was Community Mosaic Portraits. Students created multiple drafts while building their craft in between.
This project was done by 8th grade Spanish and French students. In class, students learned about three Spanish-speaking and French-speaking artists via readings, discussions, and gallery walks.
