Could humans someday make a home in outer space? 🚀

That is the question guiding 7th grade English students as they explore space settlement through art, writing, reading, speaking, and listening.

Students first studied space settlement artwork before creating their own visions of life beyond Earth and explaining the ideas behind their designs. Now, they are connecting those ideas to Ray Bradbury’s "Dark They Were, and Golden-Eyed" through a radio play.

It is creative, cross-disciplinary learning that challenges students to think critically about big questions. 📚

Make plans to attend the El Segundo Main Street Fair on Saturday, September 26, from 9:00am to 5:00pm! 🌟

➡️ Food court

We hope to see you there! 😀

Starting the school year with strong attendance helps students build positive routines, stay connected with classmates, and make the most of each day of learning.
