I met with the magical 4th graders at Guy Lee Elementary School in Springfield, Oregon. Mrs. Skoog is their teacher. The kids read The Magic of A.C. Gilbert, wrote letters to the business (Pathways Physical Therapy) that sponsored the book, and drew pictures for a timeline that highlighted A.C. Gilbert’s life.
What a great pleasure it was to hear what the students learned about this fascinating man. He was an famous Oregonian during his life, but many people today haven’t even heard of him. Feel free to share what you know about this interesting and accomplished guy in the Comments below.
