We are wrapping up our studies of the Revolutionary War. We have read about the events and researched important people. We learned how to sew like the colonists and made a pillow of our own. We listened to a historical fictional story and discussed how hard it would have been to have a dad on one side and our brother on the other. To finish up we are writing a story of our own. We will complete our stories when we return from spring break.
Enjoy the break because our spring will be a filled with learning more about the U.S. Constitution and exploring the three branches of our government. Each student will also be assigned a U.S. state to study and make a presentation on. During April we will also be creating the hallway mural of the Columbia River Gorge, investigating chemicals and solutions in science, and writing poetry.
Take care!
