✈️ In celebration of Women's History Month and the incredible contributions of women in aviation, PGM was excited to welcome service members from Moody Air Force Base on Tuesday. Inspiring individuals from a variety of careers spoke about their experiences in the military. They answered student questions about their jobs and reasons for joining the Air Force, shared advice they would give their middle school selves, and helped students try on their gear. We’d like to thank all of our MAFB visitors for graciously volunteering their time to come chat with our students and encourage them to break barriers and reach for their dreams! #WomenInAviation #WomensHistoryMonth #CommunityPartnerships

Mrs. Kiefhaber's ESOL students watched the movie Elemental. They mapped the plot and analyzed characters before creating interview questions for Wade and Ember. Students then took on the roles of the characters to answer questions asked by classmates acting as reporters. Finally, students used Canva to create news articles based on their interviews. What a great way to practice speaking and writing, as well as collaborate and create using technology! #ThreeCs
