Today 6th grade at @PalosSouth118 is working on Otzi. This PBL project is fun, creative, collaborative and interesting. We love it when #SocialStudies comes alive.

We can not say thank you enough to the whole crew @PalosPark . Mayor Milovich-Walters and her staff were so kind and welcoming to our #Capstone class. We are proud of the work our students are already putting in. #pbl @PalosSouth118 @Palos_118 (and lunch was delicious too)

Starting off our day with @PalosPark with our #Capstone class field trip. Learning so much about how the city works. Thank you to Nicole Milovich-Walters and her team. @Palos_118 @PalosSouth118
