7th grade ELA Researches Labor laws.
7th grade finished our ELA unit on Lewis Hine and his crusade against child labor by researching the early 1900s and industries that employed children. They also researched child labor laws. They picked a child from Hinesโ historical pictures of child laborers and created a monologue to tell their story.
Elementary Christmas Book Walk
Each year KAES has a Christmas book walk. Students and teachers travel around to other classrooms. Students get to hear one of the teacher's favorite Christmas children's books and then do a project connected to the book. It makes for a super fun morning.
