Join Josh & Jack as we discover the lives and achievements of famous American figures. Utilizing the Scholastic book, “OUTSTANDING AMERICANS”, we will learn about six men and six women during the fall semester (there’s a possibility that this class will continue through spring). Students do NOT need to purchase the book, as we will read the short excerpt together in class, and then do Minecraft builds based on what we learned.
Famous figures include: Davy Crockett, Bill Gates, Ulysses S. Grant, Jim Henson, Milton Hershey, Charles M. Schulz, Hellen Keller, Marilyn Monroe, Toni Morrison, Annie Oakley, and Sally Ride.
