Native American Geographic Regions, European Exploration, Settling of Colonies, and Fighting for Our Freedom: The Revolutionary War

In fifth grade, you will learn so much about the founding of our young country. Native Americans, European exploration, the founding fathers, the documents of freedom, and how our nation was formed. We will wind up with discovering what problems the new United States government faced and how they attempted to solve them to bring our government where it is today. If you had to write a set of rules for your school what would those rules be? Have you ever thought about this? Would some rules be for just your class, while others would be for the entire school? As American leaders set up a government for our new country, they faced similar questions. We'll have fun learning about the challenges the colonists faced as they bravely set out after declaring their independence.
