2. Educational Gallery Walk: After creating the crowns, set up a gallery walk where students can display their work and learn interesting facts about the presidents they represent. Each crown could be accompanied by a brief written biography or notable achievements of Washington or Lincoln.
3. Presidents' Day Discussion Circle: While wearing their crowns, gather your students in a discussion circle to talk about the qualities of a good leader, drawing examples from the lives of Washington and Lincoln. This can foster a deeper conversation about leadership, democracy and the presidents' legacies.
4. Voting Simulation: Utilize the vote template crown for a classroom voting simulation. Your students can learn about the electoral process, the importance of voting and how leaders are chosen in a democracy. This can be a great practical lesson in civics tied directly to Presidents' Day celebrations.
