George Washington...Craft, Activities, Vocabulary

George Washington was born on February 22nd, 1732.  
I love taking time to introduce him to the class during this time.
And YES I do believe you can take time away from your "language program" to introduce special events and characters.
This packet makes it easy because it includes reading, writing, word work, informational text and vocabulary...all key parts to the language standards. 
 These are two of the books I love to use when teaching about George Washington.

The packet has three forms of informational text...a fold and read, mini book, and single page.

There are two graphic organizers for recording information from the text.
Have students highlight key concepts in the text as they read.
I think the timeline is ideal for formative assessment.
There are writing pages for students to showcase their writing.

There are three delightful word work pages.
One focuses on George Washington and the word BRAVE.
Next is the Let's Make Words.  I love dividing the class into groups to complete this.
The ABC order is ideal for the word work center.

This poem also contains information about George and the activity that follows is perfect for students to recall facts presented in the poem.

These activities will be great fun.
There is a Quarter flip and a Room for one more!
