End or Beginning of the Year Social Studies Activity: Designing a New State
I created a version for younger students (grades 1-3), but it can be used for any grade level. You can find that resource here. The version on this page is more suitable for students in grades 3 and up. This idea came to me after my students finished their end-of-year testing. Since all of our social studies standards were taught before the test, I needed something for my students to do after the test. In "Designing a New State", students get to create a brand new state for the United States.

Felicity An American Girl Adventure Video Guide
This is a video guide to accompany the movie "Felicity An American Girl Adventure". I show this movie towards the beginning of the American Revolution Unit. It is probably my students favorite movie all year.
Fun Fact: The girl who plays young Felicity is now superstar Shailene Woodley from the Divergent Series and Fault in Our Stars. That makes it a little bit more interesting to the students as well since most are familiar with her as an actress. You could even make that a bonus question.
