Sacagawea
The second grade classes at Hannah's school have hosted an American Hall of Fame for the past several years. The kids choose from a list of men and women who had a significant influence on America. Hannah was Sacagawea. This was a two month project for the students. After receiving their character assignment, they had a month to research them. Hannah read two chapter books about Sacagawea, taking notes while reading. From their notes, the students developed written speeches as their hero/heroine during class time. The final drafts were sent home for minor editing with help from parents; costumes were made; treats were made (for the "after-party"), etc. After all of their hard work, it was amazing to see them. They all did so well and were so proud of their work. Completely unbiased as I am (ha, ha), I must say Hannah rocked as Sacagawea. Below are a couple of pictures and a video clipped together. Enjoy!

Spring
Thought you might also enjoy a couple of "Wisconsin in Spring" pictures. Today, we drove the entire Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive. I've been wanting to make that drive since we discovered parts of it.
Beautiful, peaceful farm
Historic church and cemetary
Goose family on the side of the road
(The second family we saw today. The first had about ten goslings!)
