6th – Adding to our timeline

Last month, students made a timeline of all the presidents in American history (and despite their best Wikipedia efforts, there were no presidents prior to 1776).  We detailed which presidents belonged to the modern Democratic party (or the historical version of that party) and the modern Republican party (or the historical version of that party).  Our timeline was pretty sweet.

Today, after our completed look at the roles and responsibilities of the Legislative Branch, we added to our timeline (some students were far from pleased about this).  We added some key moments in Congressional history.  These moments are just as important as the people who have lead our country.

Don’t worry; next up is adding some major Judicial moments!
