Students dove into fun, interactive, and informative Presidents' Day lessons today across the Manchester Township School District (MTSD)!
Ridgeway Elementary School (RES) classes enjoyed art projects and book reports, others spent the week leading up to today reading about Abraham Lincoln and George Washington in various texts. This allowed the holiday to become a recap of all they learned and the additional sharing of fun facts about each presidency.

Ms. Paladino's class at RES read informational texts about President Barack Obama that connected both Presidents' Day and Black History Month. The class worked together to organize the information they learned about President Obama's life by building information cubes. The information cubes were then used to share the facts they learned with their classmates throughout the day.
Ms. Mango's class at RES focused on why we celebrate Presidents' Day and what it means to be a President. Students spent time talking about what it means to be a leader and examples they felt leaders had including: saying the Pledge of Allegiance, helping our friends, being problem solvers, and helping our community, which is something Manchester's students have a heart to do!
Regional Day School (RDS) students were busy learning fun facts about America's Presidents as well while also making red, white, and blue friendship bracelets and necklaces to wear as they celebrate Presidents' Day.

Classes across Regional Day School were all busy with creative lessons to celebrate the holiday. Let it be arts and crafts for each president they learned about or the construction of Abraham Lincoln's log cabins with pretzels and icing, a good time was had by all.
Way to honor our Nation's leaders today, MTSD!
