JOIN REMIND
GOTTA WEAR SHADES
Mrs. Hansen’s 8th graders have been doing research about issues that will affect their futures! Students generated their own questions about possible careers, universities, or artistic pursuits that interest them. They took research notes after a discussion about credible sources online and made professional presentations to show to their classmates. Students shared their research with each other and taught their classmates about their subject. These futures look bright!
