What Eva has to say about Gracie:
Gracie was a student in my summer class EXPLORING AMERICAN HISTORY WITH THE AMERICAN GIRLS. During class, Gracie had interesting facts about history to add to every discussion. It was very clear that Gracie understood what the characters were going through and you could feel her empathy for each “American Girl”. Gracie put tremendous effort into each Word Splash done in class. Finally, every week Gracie had something to share from the time period. For being the youngest in the class, Gracie had complete confidence in sharing and explaining the connection to history!
