Today, 3rd graders at Washington School presented projects to their families and peers. The students dressed up as characters and presented a written report full of facts, along with a visual to represent why that person has made an impact on their lives. Students answered questions from the audience, such as, when they were born, what they did to make an impact on the world, and why that student chose that person. The students did a fantastic job!
