I just finished putting together a packet for my students to work on during the inauguration tomorrow. We will be having normal classes in the morning, and then watching the inauguration from 11:30 on. I wanted to have a packet for the students to work on in the event that they get bored or just need something else to focus on for a few minutes.
I am thrilled that we will be watching the inauguration activities live, because it is such a historic event! I know I would be watching it all day if I were at home. I just hope my students are interested, too!

I was a little worried about the “bored” thing, too, but I have to say my 5th graders were fascinated by everything this morning. They watched from 11 – on, while reading their TFK on the same topic. Huge history lesson for all!!
