Pictures of S. S. Unit day 2 and 3

The first picture is Abe Lincoln and his hat. It is hard to tell, but each student received a black strip of construction paper and the kids wrote one thing they learned about Abe Lincoln in white crayon (It's hard to see, but I couldn't zoom in close enough to still get the whole deal). Once they were all finished we taped each piece to the back of the door to create Abe Lincoln's hat! The cherry tree is about George Washington. The "cherries" are actually cut-outs of George Washington's head from the Ellis Machine at the school. As with Abe Lincoln each student received one "cherry" and had to write one thing they learned about George Washington. We discussed the myth about George Washington cutting down the cherry tree etc with this project. Everyone loved it, we received many compliments from other teachers in the school!
