Making Project Connections!

Students in Julia Bennett’s 7th grade classroom are exploring the relationship between Universal Human Rights and food deserts. They have read several articles on the topic and have prepared presentations that either showcase innovative ideas for solving food desert issues in neighborhoods or educational campaigns that inform the public about the issues. With that knowledge, they are now writing argumentative essays in which they are synthesizing their learning and producing academic writing. This is all preparation for the 7th grade project in which they will pick an issue at school and campaign for change around that issue. Monty Wolves are making change in their local community!
