Our Mesquite 4th graders have been diving deep into their CKLA unit, Empires of the Middle Ages! To bring history to life, students created their own medieval face masks and shields—and put their engineering skills to the test by building working catapults!

From learning about knights and feudal life to launching into hands-on STEM challenges, these students are ruling the realm of learning. Check out some of their incredible creations! 🛡️🏹✨
