Response Question: Winter of 1777 (pages 164-end)

On p. 168, Tim mentions that the Continental Army is camped at "a place called Valley Forge." Have you ever visited Valley Forge? What did you see? Find a picture of this historical landmark, right in our own backyard, and post it. Is it important for us to visit these places where history happened?

Yes i did visit Valley Forge. At Valley Forge it is covered in grass, there are deer, and some trees as well. I think it is very important for us to visit places where history occured because it makes us more intellegent as a person and it would make a good feild trip.

I think that it is important for us to visit places were histort has occured because we can learn many different things and we could also see how we would of probaly lives if certain things did not happin that did.
