I learned the names of the generals,facts about spies,what would happen to spies if they got caught,and I learned about the Second Continental Congress and where the Declaration of Independence was signed.                                                                                              Something interesting that I learned was what happened to spies if they got caught.

No one knows who made the first American flag.I think it was Betsy Ross because they went up to her telling her when they raised the flag with the British union jack in the corner they thought George Washington was surrendering.George Washington said they needed a new flag so they asked her to sew a new one since she had her own upholster shop.She accepted the job of making the new flag.That’s how I think the first American flag was made.
