Update: Revolutionary War Unit

We are immersed in Revolutionary War history in our classroom.  We have learned about the events leading up to the war, the first battles of the war, and the decisions of the Continental Congress.  We are currently analyzing the Declaration of Independence while writing opinion pieces of our own that mirror the structure of the document.

Next week we will finish our own "Kids' Declarations" and select important figures to study more in depth.  Each student will research and make a poster to present about influential figures in the war.  We will also learn about the Battle for New York.

Ask your child what he or she has learned so far!
