One room for conferences,
another for a study,
Rooms three and four for these two

DIDYOU KNOW?

The most famous proclamation in American history is the
Emancipation Proclamation. In 1863, President Abraham
Lincoln proclaimed that “all slaves in any state shall be
forever free.” By doing so, the president helped America
live up to its promise that all people “are created equal.”
The Emancipation Proclamation was a great moment in
American history. It will always be one of Abraham Lincoln’s
greatest achievements.

about people who rushed to
California in the 1800s to search
for gold. As they traveled west, they
“looked ahead,” and tried to find gold
in the ground and in rivers. They
carried pickaxes to prospect for gold in
rocks and caves, and they carried sifting
pans to prospect for gold in the sand
beds of rivers and streams. Wherever
these people went, they kept their
eyes fixed ahead in hopes of being the
first to strike a bonanza! They were
America’s first prospectors.
