Friends,

Here are some guiding questions for your reflection homework if you need them:

Which parts of the field trip did you enjoy?
Which parts confirmed what you've learned about the American Revolution?
What did you think about having the field trip at the end of our unit of study of the Revolution? Would it have been better to go on the field trip earlier?
What did you learn from the field trip?

Please remember to write in paragraphs and self-edit your work. Stretch yourself BEYOND the bare minimum, please.
