Mrs. Tenery's trip to 

Washington DC/Virginia!

Please share the following pictures with your child.

We have been talking about these special places and people as we have studied coins in class.

FDR Memorial (he is on the dime!)

Jefferson Memorial and Statue (he is on the nickel!)

Jefferson's home, Monticello (on the back of the nickel!)

The White House!

Senators Cornyn and Cruz met with our 7th graders on the steps of the Capitol Building! (this is more for the parents!)

Lincoln Memorial and Statue (he is on the penny!)

Gorgeous fall leaves!  (just wanted to share!)

Emma with George Washington!

(after the re-inactment of the "Give me Liberty, or give me death" speech 

by Patrick Henry)

Mount Vernon (George Washington's home)

(Washington was the only president who did not live in the White House)
