We Hold These Truths to be Self-Evident

5th graders study the Declaration of Independence.  

After an especially great lesson by the classroom teachers, 

each student wrote a poem documenting how they felt.  

They are very impressive.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident...
all animals and people should be treated equally,
man will be free forever,
America will never be perfect but it will be free,
kids get too much homework,
all wifis should be free,
girls are annoying and rude to boys,
war, fighting and grief is not the answer,
dogs, cats and all animals should not be abused,
all children should have the right to be educated,
people should be paid more so there is no homeless,
students backpacks are too heavy,
and justice for all."

 5th graders came up with an idea to display them.

They decided on a gigantic flag and figured out how to do it
by themselves.

You'll have to come to Quest Fest to see the final display!
