My Project

One of the best parts of the fifth-grade curriculum is U.S. History. We learn about the establishment of the thirteen colonies and their rebellious fight for independence from King George III and his British Parliament. It's fantastic to know about the birth of our country.

There's no better way to learn about the American Revolution than to dress up in costumes and act out key events that led to our country's freedom from British rule.

After ten years of dressing in the same costumes, we were finally forced to get rid of what could no longer be salvaged. Now, we must replace what was too torn and tattered. This is where we need your generous help.

Please help us give our students fresh costumes for our American Revolution performance.
