🖊️✨ Creativity meets history in Library class!

Our 6th graders are wrapping up their unit on Primary and Secondary Sources by using 3D pens to create their own primary source artifacts. Students designed and built colorful objects and images while learning how artifacts can help tell stories from the past and preserve history for future generations.

Hands-on learning, creativity, and history all came together in an engaging way as students explored how primary sources connect us to real people, places, and events. Great work, 6th graders! 👏📚
