If I Was the President

This digital slideshow customized with Smilebox

We learned lots about presidents this week in first grade. After discussing some our presidents and learning about the requirements to be the president, the boys and girls wrote about what they would do if they were elected president. They typed their writing on Neos and then illustrated themselves in the oval office. Maybe someday we'll see one of them as the president for real.

President Activities

During Presidents' Day week we learned lots about some of our presidents. On Friday we did several centers pertaining to Presidents' Day. We could make a booklet about the president's job, do a Venn Diagram on the computer on Lincoln and Washington, make an Abraham Lincoln project to go with a writing activity we did, or make a patriotic project with Abraham and Lincoln facts.

If I Was the President

This week we have been studying some of our presidents and discussed what their job is. On Friday the boys and girls wrote about what they would do if they were the president. You might even notice that the presidents in the pictures look remarkably like some first graders we know. Take a look at their ideas of what they would do if they were the president.
