This year: American History

The theme this year is American history. We went way back to the Vikings in 1000, then Columbus in 1492, then the Spanish settlers, English, Dutch...and learning about the different Native Americans who were here first. We've made a wigwam, teepee, canoe, and feather hat and read the book "Squanto" which Avery absolutely loved for some reason. We keep running into Squanto in different stories about the first Thanksgiving, and it's fun that he recognizes him.

We are learning different patriotic songs and what they mean. God Bless America and America so far.
