How great are these pop bottle biographies!
Ms. Harris's third graders wrote four paragraphs after doing a lot of research on their chosen person - early life, adult life, education, accomplishments & achievements, and any other interesting facts or events. Then, they crafted their pop bottle to model that individual and presented to their class. Excellent work, third grade!

Thank you to the Palo Pinto Retired Teachers Association for gifting our 1st, 3rd, and 5th grades with a book of their own and for helping foster a love of reading in our young minds.
