Special Events
I love the idea of putting together special events that really bring the learning unit together in real life for students. The following were some of my favorite ones that I put together.

Black History
For Black History Month, I put together a Black Excellence Exhibition. Each class was given a modern day influential African American name and they were in charge of displaying all the fun things they learned. Classes were also in charge of creating some sort of takeaway for all the students to take home and show their parents.

Hispanic Heritage
For Hispanic Heritage Month, I thought it would be a good idea to have all classes focus their learning on one specific country. They learned all about it and created a display for other students in the school to then see and learn from. The students made crafts, came up with dances and got cool artifacts.
