Founding Fathers

In continuing with our History unit we have been researching the founding fathers.  My students have been eating up all of the information being thrown at them.  Teaching at a science based school makes history that much more interesting when the students get it.
The students researched 7 founding fathers, independently and in small groups using a variety of media.  They wrote down and organized their research on graphic organizer then placed into their lapbooks.  They really had so much fun.  I have really enjoyed make the first lapbook in my classroom and cannot wait to make more.
