We had a once in a lifetime experience yesterday when the incredible Malala Yousafzai visited SOMS to speak to the 5th and 6th graders about the importance of education, especially for girls. We were truly inspired by her! Malala is a symbol of hope, strength, peace and determination. We spent weeks learning about Malala’s life – including her childhood, her motivation, her hopes and dreams and her accomplishments.

Please think about all that you have learned from Malala. Reflect on her words from yesterday. How has she inspired you? What were you most moved by?
