Close Reading Informational Text- American symbols, heroes, landmarks
We had a blast with this unit. It had a little bit of everything. We spent less time on the symbols in this unit because we had done an informational writing unit on them just before this. This was the first time that I spent a long time on what the President does and The White House. The kids LOVED it! They made little books that included general information on the presidency and also information about Washington and Lincoln. I had always taught about President Lincoln and President Washington, but it was super fun to get into the role of the President and especially The White House. Kids are going to do more research when we get back from break!
