Welcome to America’s Classroom. Join US for the 250th Anniversary!

See millions of students celebrating America’s 250th Birthday. It’s FREE to participate!

This space is hosted by teacher-emeritus, Mr. Nelson, American History & Civics educator. All students are invited to join and publish articles. View the First Assignment to get started, or publish your own article on a topic of your choice. Then, feel free to submit it to America250.org/fieldtrip.

How does it work?

Publish an article about your favorite American person, place, or primary source. Your mom could be a primary source. And your grandpa certainly is! Don’t forget about your teachers. Get feedback on your articles, then submit them to win contests like America250.org/fieldtrip.
