Who
Is Your Hero?
The Gilmer Elementary School library currently
has several books on display about famous heroes. When the students visit the library with
their class, they are encouraged to check out one of these books to learn about
positive role models.
In correlation with this, the
students are invited to choose a positive role model in their life that they
would consider a hero. (Students may
choose someone they know or someone famous that they have learned about.) After choosing their hero, they are
encouraged to create a poster describing their hero. We will have a “Who Is Your Hero?” parade on Thursday, April 2nd where
students will walk throughout the school displaying their poster. This will allow our students to learn about a
variety of different role models.
Students are encouraged to be as creative as possible in creating their
poster. The most important thing is to
HAVE FUN!
