America's Colonial "Roots"
What is America made of? What is our foundation? What are our "roots"?
We are back with another traditional panel show! It's been a while, but Mr. D sat down with Mr. Crissman, Mr. Ritz, and Mr. Hennard to discuss the following question: what are our roots made of?
Based on a a project completed by Holley seventh graders, the panel discussed a variety of groups and adjectives that describe our colonial beginnings from early exploration up to the American Revolution. -
