We have started a new unit in GT called Powerful People. The Big Idea of this Unit:
Studying a diverse group of leaders who've changed the world for the better and allows students to conclude that their traits and characteristics cross all lines of color, class, and culture, thereby motivating their own personal aspirations. We talked about people we thought were powerful people and why. At the end we concluded that powerful people share several traits and we learned some new words in the process. As we study these individuals and try our hand at some of the activities they were involved in, we will begin to categorize our powerful people into groups: creators, ecologist, advocate, medical/pioneer, athletes, kids/teen, etc.
