Welcome back to our Early American Leaders lesson! This was the flag used by the Continental Army in 1776!

Activity 1
Today you will be combining your research into a web map! Please open up Kidspiration to complete this. Please choose one of the three Early American Leaders that you researched yesterday. I would like for you to create a web map of this leader. Begin with the leader, then the next level of bubbles should be the characteristics that make him a leader, from there the final set of bubbles should be the things that that person has done that exemplifies those characteristics. Make sure that you link the example to the correct characteristic.

Directions

 * Begin by clicking picture view.
 * Type the name of your chosen leader into the section that says Main Idea
 * Next click the "add symbol tool" from the top left of the page to add new bubbles for more information. This is the bubble with a plus sign button.
 * You can search for related pictures on the left side of the screen.
 * If you add a picture you can use the "add a link tool" in the top left of the page to create an arrow that links the idea to the picture. This is the bubble with an arrow button.
 * If you have any trouble, please raise your hand and I will assist you.
 * When you are finished please raise your hand and I will help you to save and print your web map

Activity 2
After you have completed your web map, you will go back to your table and discuss the qualities that you believe all leaders have or should have. When you have finished brainstorming this list, as a table come up with a list of at least 5 leaders that we did not discuss in this lesson.
