The Identity Project
Second Graders Showcase Mixed-Media Installations
The 2nd grade's second annual Identity Project culminated in what the grade refers to as Museum Day on May 12. For this event, students showcased mixed-media installations about their personal identities, and the GDS community was invited to view the exhibit and hear from the student artists.
?Second grade teachers Todd Carter, Many Kimlick, Githa Natarajan, and Danny Stock also created a video compilation of students and their families sharing quick insights into their cultural and genealogical backgrounds. Watch Part I and Part II of the video.
