MARCH FAMILY PROJECT



Roadtrip Through Michigan


Get out your maps of Michigan because we are on our way to learn
about different places in our wonderful state!
As a family…work together and find facts about a specific city in our super state. 
Please help your child find 3 interesting facts about the city they choose.  The facts should be child friendly (i.e.…Kalamazoo has a car museum or Ann Arbor has a cool bike trail).  Your child will then present the facts he or she found to the class using a poster, real life pictures, or any other prop to help relay these interesting facts to the class.
The best part is…you get to choose your city! 
Below are the students, their presentation date and their chosen cities:)
