Adventure, Adventure, Arrghh!
Essential Question: What makes an Adventurer?
Welcome, adventurers to the start of your fourth grade year, or should I say, your fourth grade adventure? This will not be your average year. Let me tell you more. Through experiencing adventures and researching adventurers, we will sharpen our resilience, hone our risk-taking and develop strong support for each other. Without these skills (and more) adventure is nigh on impossible. Without these skills learning withers away. So are you ready… ready for the challenge… ready for the adventure… ready for fourth grade? I can’t wait to begin. Project Handout
