Bringing History to Life

Help me give my students the supplies needed to bringing the American Revolution to life.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Thompson's classroom raised $252

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project will help us bring the American Revolution to life. This is our first year studying the American Revolution. My students are excited to learn the history of the Unite States.

This project will allow students to enjoy an American Revolution Day with lots of hands-on projects to make their learning concrete.

We will make our own flags, practice taxation, argue our side and become spies with our own secret code. The students enjoy these days as they get to put their learning to use with hands on experience.
