President's Week!

Washington, Lincoln, Obama! In honor of President's Day, we studied about our 1st and 16th president.

George Washington Craft

We talked about George Washington being the first president. The smarties know that presidents lived in the White House. I told them all the president's lived in the White House except Washington because it was being built back then! Using cotton balls, a paper plate, and a dye was all that was needed for the project. Each number on the dye represented creating a part of Washington. Rolling a 1 is making his eyes, 2 is his nose, 3 mouth, 4 wig, 5 hat, and 6 writing his name on the back.

Abraham Lincoln Craft

Honest Abe was the 16th president! I showed the kids a penny and told him his face was on it! He was known for his tall black hat and inside our hat, we wrote some facts about Abe!
