Revolution Wrap up
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!
