Mavericks Experience Blast from the Past

English II students in Ms. Cruz's class at CC Winn High School were assigned a "Blast from the Past" research project. 
Students were expected to 
research 
specific, well-known historical figures which included finding ​
some of the contributions
​ each one of these
 figures
 made to International Human Rights or Social Justice
​.  
Some of the figures included were Alexander Hamilton, Amelia Earhart, and Nelson Mandela (to name a few).

Using both online and book resources provided by Winn's Library, students successfully researched ​all required information and presented their findings to their peers. 

​ ​As students prepare for the English II STAAR Exam being administered on Thursday, April 12th, teachers are taking creative approaches to help students reinforce and review what has been taught in class.
