e essential question,
"What does it mean to be an activist?"
informs two interconnected units of study in third grade:
biography and persuasive writing. Students are encouraged
to harness their own passions and curiosity to construct a
message to a person in power—to effect change in their
schools, homes, or civic institutions.
