Early Settlements Social Studies Project

 Early Settlements of the Pacific Northwest And Plains

This early settlements project was a major hit for my students and the rest of the school.

When I think it can't get any better, along come my students with these models to prove me wrong.
We just finished our Early Settlements unit and Friday was the day to present to the parents. Earlier in the week each student presented to the class and answered questions for them. The whole process was incredible. The children were so excited to see the projects and ask questions.
They were so serious about what they were doing and they demonstrated a good understanding of the differences between the two areas studied and the contributions of the First Nations people and the early settlers/pioneers. This was truly their chance to shine.

The projects

There were so many good projects, I didn't know which ones to pick so I decided to show them all. Even my struggling students did a super job. They were so proud! I think their parents were proud too. I know I am very proud of each and every one of them.
