Abstract | Researching the men and women who are the namesakes of local schools can be one of the best bridges students can use to cross the gulf of historical time. Granted, some schools are named after trees, flowers, or geological formations, but many of America's public schools are named after people who once walked the ground today's gifted students now tread. Finding the stories of these community leaders whose names continue to adorn the schools can be a heady experience for young researchers. Through this research, students have the opportunity to use a treasure chest of research tools, plus thinking, reading, and writing skills. This article discusses a project for gifted and talented students that combines history, research, and writing in the naming of schools. (ERIC). |
