Happy President’s Day Homeschoolers & Christian Friends,

   I love to read about George Washington. Don’t you? When I was in elementary school I read a few books about George Washington, the first elected president of the United States. Do you remember having to read a book and write a book report? It’s the same idea today. It’s a good learning tool to discover more about a subject, topic, or person. Instruct your child to include the following sections in his book report:

• Book Title, Author, Website URL
• Research Questions
• Main Character(s)
• Main Events
• Setting
• Moral of the Story
• Chapter Summaries
• Conclusion
• Questions for Further Research

You can make this a little easier by clicking on the free online chapter book about George Washington by William Roscoe Thayer. I hope you enjoy learning more about our first elected president–President George Washington.
