Johnny Tremain: An Era of Change - 5th Grade
Arts Integration!:
We started this journey by reading the novel Johnny Tremain, by Esther Forbes. After digging into the setting, plot and themes of the story, it was time to bring it to life. First we had to do some research. Each group of three chose a colonial trade to research and used the research to turn it into a skit. To bring in the historical aspect of the era, we also researched events of the time that would've had an effect on our businesses. We wrote reports, we composed scripts, we crated backdrops, we dressed in costumes, we acted out and filmed our scripts, and we edited them using iMovie.
