I chose this topic because i am interested in my ancestor’s past. I thought that it would also be interesting to learn about the early history of this country. After I thought about it awhile I decided that was what I was going to do. After that I was already thinking about how it would tie into the theme, Leadership and Legacy, that's where the Battle of Trenton ties into my project.
I started by looking up George Washington and some of the battles he was in. After that I focused on one battle ( The Battle of Trenton) I was trying to find out how to tie it into the theme. This is how I conducted my research.
I chose to do a website because i think it is easier and doesn't waste paper. I had a good experience with a website last year, and I would like to do even better on my website this year. I thought that I did a president last year and I would like to keep doing presidents. This is how I chose what I was doing.
My project relates to the theme because of many things. George Washington was a very important person. He did what no other president could do. He led the continental army to victory in the Battle of Trenton, and many more battles after that. His legacy has been with the American history, for many many years. He did this by freeing the Americans from England in the Revolutionary War.
