My Project

This project will assure that students can keep their ideas and pencils sharp. The pencil sharpener is heavy duty, so that the students can maintain a sharp point.

The remaining resources build on concepts concerning the all aspects of the American Revolution.

The literature chosen covers many concepts of the American Revolution, from espionage, black regiments, women, battles, and personal journals. With this literature, students will have a highly engaging perspective of the birth of our nation.

The resources enable students to develop informed conclusions on the incredible journey that made us a nation.
