Mrs. Underwood’s 3rd graders wrapped up their Unit 4: Roman Civilization learning with a hands-on creative project—beautiful mosaic art!
Our students put so much thought and imagination into their pieces, and the results were nothing short of amazing. We love seeing their artistic talents shine through as they learn in fun and meaningful ways! 💛🧩
Great job, 3rd grade! 👏 Keep up the wonderful work!
