Hey again! It's Rachel from the tattooed teacher. I just love February! I love biographies and that's what I do all month long! I spend a week on all things presidential then the rest is Black History. I wanted to share a few things I do during our presidential studies. Each day this week we Owls will be sharing our ideas! So get your downloading on!
Just fyi...I am fascinated with Lincoln. I don't know why, but I am! Each year I use this free, little craft from Amy. And it sure wouldn't be complete without the kiddos adding the lips magnets!
We also go online and read about presidential favorites. Last year we were working on our graphing unit so we graphed favorite foods. Very interesting.
But my favorite, quick and easy activity is reading this book I found and developing a list of presidential character traits. First, the book is simply to die for! But my literal kids never get it!
Second, I love any craft I can use their little face on!
we turn this...into this
You can make your own too! Here's my freebie just for you!
Happy President's Day!
Thanks for the freebie Rachel! That book is great. I just bought the Kindle book to read on the Activboard. Thanks!
