Mountain View Middle School

📚Tools for Learning in Action!📚 Our students are bringing literature to life through creative, hands-on projects! 5th grade is diving into Sign of the Beaver, while 6th and 7th graders are exploring Call of the Wild and powerful Holocaust literature. Students selected meaningful scenes from their reading and transformed them into detailed shoebox dioramas. 🎨📖 By recreating key moments from the text, they’re analyzing setting, theme, and character perspective in a way that goes beyond the page. We love seeing critical thinking and creativity come together!🐾 #WeAreBenton #MVMSFamily
