Students were asked to write about an event in our community, share why they liked living here, and tell how our community is different from the community where their parents lived as a child. Each student created a brochure to persuade people to live in Double Oak. Some of the crayon drawings are from our town pamphlets. All of these activities provided opportunities for the children to learn about our area and create interest in our community.
