Presidents

Honest Abe
Lincoln hats were a good thing to make on Presidents Day. Even easier to get them to understand that he was the 16th President of the United States being that today is February 16th. We talked about the Gettysburg address and civil rights.

We also went over George Washington, a farmer before he became President. General of the confederate army. First president of the United States, read the Declaration of Independence to his troops, July 9, 1776.
