In the Mini Quest activity, Finding Your Seat on the Bus, students explore the concepts of grit, determination and resilience. They learn about individuals now and in the past who exemplify those characteristics and became social innovators: Holocaust liberators and civil rights activists Leon Bass and Paul Parks, Holocaust survivor and activist Hedy Epstein, and American politician Elizabeth Holtzman.
Learning Aims: Students construct a poem based on what they learn and reflect on how they can harness grit and determination to make a difference in their own lives.
