Learning how to give clear, concise instructions is a superpower. Mrs. Roberts’ 5th Grade ELA students are proving they have it! As part of their "How-To" project series, Rosie Hamrick led a hands-on workshop on crafting Lizard Pony Bead Keychains. From drafting the steps to presenting in front of her peers, Rosie showed incredible leadership.
Every student left with a custom keychain and a better understanding of how to share knowledge with others.
