My Project

My enthusiastic, loquacious students are reading plays about the American Revolution. My students have a natural thirst for learning about this important time period in American history. They are learning about the Loyalists and Patriots! During our learning, we gather knowledge and opinions on who was justified, the Loyalists or Patriots. After we have read and learned about both sides of the conflict, we will have a debate. By donating you are helping students have a meaningful and educational debate! My students will feel like they are in the time of the "American Revolution" by dressing up as soldiers, both loyalists and patriots, along with dressing up in the colonial times. I appreciate your contribution to help my students learn and grow about our countries past and how our United States was formed! My students are also going to write a play and act out their parts during the time period of the American Revolution. This project will make history come to life and will capture a meaningful and memorable interdisciplinary project in a fun and motivating way. We would love to fund this project as quickly as possible before the end of the school year. This is an urgent project. Please help us. Thanks.
