Hey Everyone!!!!Today we went to the White House. It was amazing!!!! We got to see where the President lives and everything that he does on a daily basis too! We saw all of the different rooms that the White House has in it and we learned about what happens in each room.
During our history lesson, we focused on the history of the White House. The children were able to understand the different parts of the White House, what wars it has lasted through, how it was built and the logistics of it as well.
Citizenship was also a main focus when visiting the White House. It is such a big part of the President's job and I wanted to make sure that the students understood that! They were able to decide and think of their own definition of citizenship and how they can better contribute to their communities as well.
The students seemed to enjoy this very much. I think they were most excited about seeing where the President of the United States lives!!!
We will have more updates soon!!!!!!
