Kensington Elementary School

3rd graders transformed their classroom into a Literacy Construction Zone! 🚧📚 Students worked in construction crews to analyze texts and complete their “blueprints” of literacy skills to help prepare for the EOG. They definitely “hit the nail on the head” with their hard work and teamwork! 🔨
