A few years ago my son was studying American History using America the Beautiful from Notgrass Publishing. I love how they weave literature study into each era of American History. It’s a unit study and incorporates Bible, Literature, vocabulary, creative writing, mapping and timelining.

I wanted to enhance the study a bit by letting him study a bit about each President as we progress through history and let him explore a little about them as we go. He learned to name them as a list and their order of succession several years ago, but I don’t just want him to be able to say them. I want him to have an understanding about each of their lives and some basics about what their presidency was like. 

So I came up with these Just the Presidential Facts Notebooking pages. As he reads about each one, he can jot down some facts and information that he finds to be interesting. 

Another way to approach a a study of the presidents is when you dive into American Civics. I recommend using Uncle Sam and You, also by Notgrass Publishing, which is written for middle school aged students. These pages are appropriate for use with civics as well. 

Each Inauguration Day on the 20th of January following a Presidential election year, at high noon eastern time, a new President of the United States of America is inaugurated as the Commander in Chief of the United States of America.

Whether you just want your students to get more familiar with an incumbant President or review all of them, these pages will help you do just that. 

Whenever there is a new inauguration I update the Presidential Facts Notebooking Pages to include the most recent president in the package.
