Students:
Camden:I did not know that George Washington's teeth were so bad because he ate walnuts and they cracked his teeth and he didnt brush his teeth.
Tyler (3): I always thought that this was interesting. Geogre Washington had really bad teeth. He did not brush his teeth at all when he was younger, so they all fell out. I did not know when Benjamin Franklin turned 10 he lost all of his education, so he taught himself. I thought that how Thomas Jefferson and John Adems tied in votes for the electoral college was interesting. (2) I wonder why Benjamin Franklin is on the hundred dollar bill. I also wonder why Alexander Hamilton liked money so much.
Cooper: I found it interesting that Alexander Hamilton received his first job at eleven years old and impressed his boss. It was interesting that Thomas Jefferson Made the twelfth amendment after tying in an election with John Adams. I Learned that John Jay was the president of the second continental congress.QUESTIONS. I wonder Why George Washington went into the army in the first place? I also wonder why Alexander Hamilton was pro-British when the British tried to destroy our colonies in the revolution? (Nolan) Hamilton liked money and the British were rich. I think Hamilton is pro-British because he was born there and I think that’s where his father’s from. (Evie)
Mady: I learned that George Washington loved walnuts. I learned that Elizabeth Hamilton opened the first private orphanage. I learned that George Washington never had any biological children. I wonder why George Washington´s family did not have a good dental history? I also wonder why they put Ben Franklin's face on the $100 bill? Sania: He was really important because he helped write the Declaration of Independence, so they thought it was a good idea to put him on an important bill.
Alexa : I was unaware that James Madison created the 3 house legislature. I learned that Benjamin Franklin was the creator of polymath. I also learned that Thomas Jefferson’s wife was a big political character and she was once the First Lady of Virginia. I wonder if Thomas Jefferson had enough money to build a plantation? I am curious if John Jay could be a head judge if he was alive today?
Brooklyn 1. I did not know that when Alexander Hamilton when he was 11 he had his first job. I did not know that John Jay was born in New York City. I did not know that Benjamin Franklin was the one who declared war on Britain. 2. I wonder how Martha Washington got the idea to start up the first lady's idea? I think it came to her mind because Gearge was the president and she was his wife and so she would call herself the first lady.(Lexi) I wonder why Benjamin Franklin wanted to become an inventor? Maybe he did because he is very smart and maybe he went to a good school (gretchen)
Lexi 3: It’s so amazing how Alexander hamilton got his first job when was only 11., It’s so interesting how George washington had 300 slaves, its so cool how john jay was a farmer once. 2: I wonder why george washington did not care about his teeth, i wonder why Elizebeth hamilton worked as a widow for 50 years.
Gretchen 3: i learned that george washington owned about 300 slaves. I didn't know that John Jay grew up in rye, New york.. I think it is cool that James Madison oversaw the Louisiana purchase. 2: I wonder why George Washington had such bad teeth. Brooklyn, I think that he had such bad teeth because he did not think that it was not the most important thing , he had better things to do. I wonder what inspired Benjamin Franklin to make bifocals. What inspired Benjamin Franklin was that he was both nearsighted and farsighted so he decided to create glasses that had both.

Noah : I found it interesting that George Washington owned slaves. I found it very fascinating indeed that Ben Franklin had the idea of the Silence Dogood letters. Lastly, I learned that John Jay never remarried. I wonder why George Washington never had biological children. Maybe George Washington was too busy from the war and by the time he got home, he could not have any kids. -Isabella How did Eliza live until 97?To be honest he actually owned 300 slaves to be exact Noah.

Alivia- Some things that I found interesting was George Washington had owned 300 slaves and he relesed all of the slaves after his wife had died. How Benjamin Franklin was a diplomat and a scientist,polymath, inventor ,and printer, and a founding father at the same time. Alexander Hamilton's wife was a widow for 50 years after Hamilton's death. I wonder why George washinton release all of his slaves after his wife had died insead of releasing them before. I wonder how many things Benjamin Franklin had invented throughout his years of living. He invented 8 things. - Easton
Isabella- I learned that George Washington became Chief in Commander 14 years before he became president, that John Adams studied at Harvard Law school before he became our 2nd president, I also did not know that Benjamin Franklin is on the 100 $ bill! I wonder why Jefferson closed the trading ports for all of the US. I also wonder why all of the presidents (besides John Adams) ran for 2 terms like George Washington.
(Jalyn) Maybe the presidents that ran for 2 terms like George Washington wanted to follow in his footsteps
Nolan 3: I learned that George Washington housed 300 slaves while he was in Mount Vernon. I also learned that John Adams went to Harvard College. I wonder why George Washington became the leader of the Continental Army. I wonder why John Jay was elected to be the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court?
Keaton: I learned that George Washington had no biological children, but had 2 step-children, from his wife, Martha Washington's previous marriage . I also found out that George Washington loved animals, and those animals were Dalmatians, English foxhounds, French hounds, Greyhounds, Italian Greyhounds, mastiffs, Newfoundlands, pointers, spaniels and even terriers. That is a lot of animals to take care of. There was one more thing I learned from George Washington which was that after his 2 terms as president Washington retired at his beloved home in Mount Vernon where he lived the remainder of his whole life . I wonder why Washington released all his slaves after his wife’s deathI wonder why George Washington broke up with his previous wife Sally Fairfax. ( Sally refused to leave her husband and would feel bad, and by the time he died , Washington was already married. -Alexa)
James: I never knew that James Madison was a delegate to Congress. I never knew John Adams resented the Stamp Act so deeply. I never knew that Jefferson’s wife was named Martha. I wonder how religious James Madison was. I just found out that James Madison didn’t have any religious beliefs, Noah. I wonder who chose Benjamin Franklin to be on the $100 bill.
