In the late 1700s our president did their best to in the together, they fought keep America make a and government helped revolutionary war, that was right for the very many people of the new nation. President Abraham Lincoln During the mid-180did his part to keep the nation together. He led the North and defeated the South in the Civil War. President Lincoln also made plans for the transcontinental railroad, but never lived to see it finished because he was shot m a theater and died the next day at 7:22 a m These are a few of the many presidents who did great things for our country, so we should honor our presidents on Presidents Day Guinevere Nagel . Presidents Day means a lot to me. It helps me remember all the great things our country has. Some of the ones I remember most are, freedom of speech and religion. It helps me to remember great presidents of our country. Some that I remember the most are President Lincoln and George Washington. I like the way we do not have a king or queen. When I look at the flag I gather many thoughts. Some of them are the breaking away from England and some of the world wars. I also think of great sayings like Give Me Liberty or Give me Death and Peace on Earth Good Will to All Men. We have a copy of the Bill of Rights in our classroom It reminds me of all our rights. This is why Presidents Day means a lot to me. That we are very lucky to live in America our presidents are some of the important people. Presidents day means a lot to me becuse it feels good to be free in America and everybody else probably feels that way too. I am glad we are here today in America because we are learning something and I am glad we have school because if we didnt we wouldnt be so smart. e. Presidents Day means to celebrate all of the presidents. To fly the flag all day. I am glad we have had presidents that have led us in wars. I am glad to be an American. Steven Jones President Day reminds me of what all the presidents did for our country and who gave us our freedom that we have today. When I say the pledge of Allegiance I think of all the presidents of the United States of America and what they did for us. I am very glad that we have presidents instead of kings and queens like other countries. I am glad to be in America with all our freedoms that we have. I like all 39 presidents and they all did a good job in office. And that what presidents Day means to me. George Washington or Abraham Lincoln. I think of George and the Revolutionary War and Lincoln and his fight against slavery. But there are more than just, the presidents there are many other people like Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence. V.e are very lucky to have all the freedom we do. We have the freedom to bear arms, the freedom of the press, the freedom of religion and many others. I am very proud to live in America. Kenneth D. Pitchford Presidents Day means to me the things they did to give us liberty. For what Abraham Lincoln did for the people of his time for what George Washington did for us and for all the other presidents for what they did for us. For the people that fought for their rights and for Scottie Ritchie What Presidents Day means to me is that Americas ships sail the seas, they fight for freedom and you and me. America the free, America the bold, we stand high and shine like gold. We have our good days, we have our downs, we have our smiles, we have our frowns. We have respect, we have love, we have bloodshed, we fly like doves. We have red, we have white, we have blue and we freedom. Now we can do things we want, when we want and wear what we want, and for the things we can do with the freedom they wone us. So that now we are not ruled by kings or royal governers or queens. Mark Trujillo What Presidents Day means to me it means George Washington are first president of the Unighted States of America. And if it wasnt for the Revaluchin War England would still be ruling the Unighted States of America. I think President Day is veary spechal. So we can give thanks to our contry.

Early in 1776 the members of the Continantal Congress met in Philadelphia. They made an important decision. They chose five men to write the Declaration of Indepen-dancEach man made up some ideas about the declaration. But most of the writing was done by a member from Viriginia, his name was Thomas Jefferson.
