Welcome to Litsy!

A lot happened in 1776 in the colonies and a lot didn‘t happen. Several of the key events that we think of for the Revolutionary War happened in 1776, and yet there was a lot of just moving men and planning.
This was easy to listen to and interesting. The focus was on Washington and what he did. I wish there had been less focus on him.
Over all good worth the time.

Started this Friday. Haven‘t listened to it since because I listen to audiobooks while I work and I took a couple mental health days.
I like McCullough he‘s good at telling the information in a palatable way.

“I had not known what it was like to be free… I thought that it was a thing to be earned, not given.”

This book could help when discussing the American Revolution and you could use this for your student to explore lives of enslaved people during the time

This book is a great read to help your class understand the history of the American Revolution!

“I am not invisible. I am not a ghost. I am a girl. I am a person.”

I would use this book if it aligned with the curriculum and the topic for that week

This book was touching seeing how Isabel just wants to protect her younger sister. I liked the themes and how it was portrayed
