This past Tuesday Pitch In students did a great job completing their Chicago landmark models. We had a variety of creations including models of The John Hancock Center, The Willis Tower, The United Center, Douglas Park, the Chicago Theater and more! Students each did research and learned more about their location and then presented their work to families.

We were also joined by a very special guest, Jeanne Sparrow from WCIU’s You & Me This Morning Show. We are so glad Jeanne joined us and led an activity in which students were able to Try Out different elements of Jeanne’s job including researching a story similar to a journalist, interviewing their peers and mentors, and then presenting their news live from the Pitch In studio! Thanks for joining us Jeanne!

 

Special thanks to R.J Grunts for sponsoring family dinner this month!
