American boys! July 2013
Our focus in the month of July was learning about our country and history of the United States. We started off the month celebrating our country's birthday, July 4th! We made our traditional flag cake, painted a 4th of July fireworks painting, BBQ and watched fireworks at Arena Park in Cape Girardeau MO.
Later in the month of July we began studying The Revolutionary War. We learned that the Patriots revolted against the British and King George of England because they did not like being ruled by him. They protested with a tea party. The colonists were called Patriots. The British wore red coats and were nick named, you guessed it, "red coats". We read a really neat book "If You Lived at the Time of the American Revolution" by Kay Moore. We ended the study with a lapbook and made super cool British and Patriot clothespin soldiers!
We visited our local "statue of liberty" at Capaha Park in Cape Girardeau MO!
