Dear students,

If you are interested in reading a sample state report. Please click on this Link.

This is just the text of a report, and there will be a completed report with all of the text features (map, flag, timeline, etc.) available in the classroom. As a class, we will put together out reports upon completion, and present them to each other before the end of the school year!

Warmly,
Ms. H

We are finishing up reading Patty Reed's Doll. We will continue to learn about America's early history - the Civil War and into the early 1900s.
