This unit looks fabulous! What fun - and learning!!!!!
I love Presidents Day and I read Lincolns Hat. I bring in a big hat to show them how Lincoln put papers in his hat by having the kiddos write notes to add to the rim and in the top. Then they write a story of what important things would they put in their hat. It is quite funny what they think of.
ReplyDeleteI really like your unit!

Wow! You certainly have been very busy! Those activities look fabulous! My favorite activity to celebrate presidents day is to have all the children research a specific president and put on a living museum show for parents.

ReplyDeleteYour President pack looks great! I usually read biographies of some presidents to the kids. They love doing the heads or tails coin toss with probability. They make a little book about the presidents. I need some new ideas! :o)

I pick 5 different presidents and then we vote on which one we want to learn about and we will read a story and do some research to find out about the president. We also do a writing activity about what the students think is the president's job.
