Fourth grade students are learning about the southwest region of the United States by taking a "tour" of the region. Students worked in groups to learn about a place in the region and create a diorama to visually share what the place is like. The students then went on a "tour" by viewing each group's diorama and listening to an oral presentation sharing highlights and facts about each place!

If you walk down the main hallway at MIS, it's hard to miss the "Hall of Character" created by our 5th grade students. As part of their ELA module, each student researched an athlete that demonstrates positive character and inspires positive actions in their athletic event and beyond!
