 Unit 4: America: Symbols and Celebrations- In this unit, students study America’s symbols and celebrations.
 Overview: Building on asking questions about neighborhoods, students begin this unit by asking questions about a local symbol. They
 progress to asking questions for more detailed information in non-fiction texts. Students learn to write informative pieces with richer
 content. Through shared writing, students also learn to expand complete sentences by using more details about American symbols. To
 be sure the content resonates with the children, celebrations from the student’s own ethnicity or religion will be encouraged as part of the
 information gathering.
