April has been flying by, and we are now just days away from Earth Day and San Jacinto Day!
My original reader Do Your Part to Save The Earth is a great addition to your lesson plan for Earth Day, or when your class is studying recycling and conserving resources! This third-grade level N reader combines reading activities and science concepts.
The battle that would decide the outcome of the Texas Revolution, The Battle of San Jacinto, was fought on April 21, 1836. The Texans were led to victory by General Sam Houston against a Mexican army led by Santa Anna. Santa Anna would soon sign a peace treaty that required the Mexican army to leave the land that would become the Republic of Texas, later the US state of Texas.
Your class can learn more about this holiday and its history in my original 1st grade Level G reader San Jacinto Day
The San Jacinto Monument in Houston commemorates this battle. It is the world's tallest monumental column and tallest war memorial. My original 4th grade Level R reader “The San Jacinto Monument” will tell your class more interesting facts about this monument and the early history of Texas.
