Welcome
Hello and welcome to my website!
As a student, I feel that it is important to reflect on important experiences that I participate in. With this blog, I plan on updating everyone involved with social media to what is happening in the world of history and social studies.
History
FACTS
Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement, was founded in 1607.
Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is the site where the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were written.
The Gettysburg Address was a short speech given by Abraham Lincoln to dedicate a cemetery for soldiers who died at the Battle of Gettysburg. It is considered to be a profound statement of American ideals.
Marbury v. Madison was the 1803 Court decision that gave the Supreme Court the right to determine whether a law violates the Constitution. It set up the principle of judicial review.
