American Revolution comes to Memorial!

Denis Cormier of Hands on History visited the Memorial 5th graders and shared with them various primary source documents and artifacts from the American Revolution. Students got to participate and handle the artifacts. Don't worry all the artifacts are harmless- have been disabled and not capable of hurting anyone- no matter how scary they look! What a great way to kick off our study of the American Revolution!
