The Vermont 250th in the Classroom
The purpose of this document is to provide lessons and resources to engage students in learning about the founding of the nation and the critical role that Vermont and Vermonters played in the War for Independence and the legacy they left on America. Members of the 250th Education Committee have identified lessons and resources that align with the four themes established by the Vermont 250th Commission on which to focus the commemoration of the Semiquincentennial; suggested grades have also been provided for upper Elementary, Middle, and High school students.
