The next president we are going to explore is Abraham Lincoln.
He is our 16th president and one of the most
beloved presidents of all time.
Here are real pictures of their coins.
Here are real pictures of their paper money.
This is a picture of where our lawmakers come together
to discuss and make decisions.
They will take votes to make final decisions.
We are going to take a vote on our favorite President.
Sometimes a vote is called a Poll.
Here are some other fun facts about these two amazing presidents.
They both have large monuments built in their honor.
This is the Washington Monument
This is the Lincoln Memorial
They both appear on Mount Rushmore.
Mount Rushmore is a huge mountain where faces
of famous presidents have been carved into the sides.
George Washington is the first face.
Abraham Lincoln is the last face.

It took 14 years to carve the faces of these presidents.
400 people worked on this project.
It cost almost 1 million dollars to finish.
$989,922
That’s a whole lot of quarters and pennies!

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing! We started working on it Friday and will complete it tomorrow Tuesday. The kids really enjoyed it. Lots of info and activities.
ReplyDeleteKatie - I just wanted to tell you that due to a change in my teaching partner's unexpected absence I had to come up with something quick. I printed these books off real quick (I teach resource so small number of kids) and we did them together. These were perfect! So glad you shared them and made them as a freebie. Super awesome quality and cute!
