Mrs. Swigert-Fenton's APUSH students visited Ms. Hick's 3rd grade class yesterday. The high school students created games about the causes of the American Revolution and then played them with the 3rd graders. The games included Hangman between the Loyalists and the Patriots, Memory Revolution, and the Boston Tea Party bozo cups game (using tea bags to toss into the cups), Sorry!, and Bingo. Both groups had a blast. Thanks to Ms. Hicks for allowing the high school class to come hang out.
