Etymology and history of first names   

Inspired by Chris Van Dusen's recent book titled, "If I Built A School," second grade students created a model of their own futuristic school.  They added many improvements to our traditional school such as zip lines so that students could get to class quickly, exotic class pets to help keep everyone safe and calm, and countless food items that would be available throughout the day.  I was amazed to witness the excitement, creativity, and collaboration within group members.
