Our EE 3rd graders love to hold Market Days each year as a part of their financial literacy unit of study. Students create teams who create, market and sell student-made products or services for sale at their annual Market Days marketplace event. Their marketing skills are put into action when they use iMovie to create their own commercials that are shown at their booths.  All proceeds are donated to a charity that the entire grade level agrees upon. My money's on the Mustangs!

Research projects have reached a new level with our technology tools in our 1:1 iPad classrooms. Showcased here, our 2nd graders use their iPads, Pebble Go, and Pages to complete their biography study. Students in 3rd grade researched the Solar System to create reports and build models. Students in 4th grade use various websites like Tweentribune.com and library databases to research topics to write their feature articles. Our 4th graders are so savvy that they use split screens, Apple Pencils and their keyboards to write up research articles that wow their readers!
