The Chronicle inspires class for Black History Month

The students in Coleen Johnson’s third-grade class at the Downtown School went to work when they saw The Chronicle’s Black History Month section that was published on Feb. 23. Many in the class submitted answers to the Black History Contest and most of them got them correct. For that they were given tickets to a circus that will be in the Triad. The students also used the special section to complete a lesson on main idea and supporting details.
