To celebrate Government Week, Manatee Academy third grade students interacted with our mayor, Mayor Shannon Martin! Our students enjoyed listening to Mayor Martin describe the civic duties of a mayor and the students were excited to ask her questions about these responsibilities! This experience provided our students a connection to our current reading lessons based on the essential question, “Why do people participate in government?” Thank you Mayor Martin for taking the time to provide this valuable experience for our students at Manatee Academy!
