Symbols of America

Our Symbols of America lesson was a tie-in to our Presidents' Day unit. We learned about many different symbols that represent our country. The one symbol that we took an in-depth look at was the Statue of Liberty. At the end of our lesson the kids took an online drawing tutorial so that they could learn how to draw "Lady Liberty" and I must say, they did a fabulous job!






































Here's the tutorial for drawing "Lady Liberty".
