Using these pages for Presidents' Day
February brings a great opportunity to teach early American history. Our first president pages work well in the classroom alongside lessons about the Continental Army and the founding of the United States. You can pair these sheets with an Abraham Lincoln activity to cover the two most prominent figures celebrated during this winter holiday.
The illustrations range from classical portrait busts to action scenes on horseback at winter camp. Students can also color the famous folklore story of the young boy and his axe near the cherry tree, which helps educators introduce the concept of honesty to younger children while discussing historical myths versus facts.
Honoring George Washington Carver
Because their names are so similar, many educators look for materials on both historical figures at the same time. We included a dedicated section for the pioneering agricultural scientist who revolutionized farming practices in the South. These sheets show him examining plants in his laboratory and operating his famous Jesup Agricultural Wagon, which served as a mobile school for farmers.
These specific illustrations are highly useful during Black History Month or when teaching elementary science units about botany, peanuts, and crop rotation. The detailed plant life in these sheets gives older students a chance to practice shading natural textures and botanical elements.
Coloring tips for historical accuracy
When coloring the military scenes, students can use buff and navy blue for the traditional Continental uniform worn during the Revolutionary War. The kindergarten sheets allow for more creative freedom, but the realistic depictions of his Virginia estate, Mount Vernon, look best with natural brick reds, forest greens, and crisp white for the colonial architecture.
For the formal portraits, a muted palette of grays, deep blues, and gold accents helps replicate the style of 18th-century oil paintings. You can encourage adult colorists or older students to use colored pencils to layer these subtle tones, giving the clothing and backgrounds a textured, historic feel.
