Dive into Presidents' Day with these engaging & educational paper craft crown templates, perfect for celebrating George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, the cornerstones of the U.S. Constitution. These printable worksheet templates are designed to captivate & educate, making it a must have for any classroom commemorating Washington's Birthday, Presidents' Day or President's Day. With 11 versatile templates, your students have the unique opportunity to color, customize & assemble their very own president themed crowns. Choose from George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, or a special vote template for dynamic role play activities. These crafts enrich your celebration of Presidents' Day and serve as a hands-on, creative way to explore American history, leadership and the values that shape our nation. Perfect for a wide range of grade levels, these Presidents' Day Crown Craft Templates are an ideal blend of fun and learning, guaranteed to spark curiosity and patriotism in your classroom.

Some fun ideas:

1. Presidents' Day Parade: Organize a classroom or school-wide Presidents' Day parade where students proudly wear their crowns. Your students can act out significant events or deliver famous speeches from George Washington or Abraham Lincoln's lives.
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.
