In our school, you don’t learn about the American Revolution until fifth grade, but then you learn it in great detail. So, I’ll ask my fourth grader what he knows about the Declaration of Independence, but won’t be surprised if he can’t say much yet.
Well it seems 35% know about it but by the time they go through the system to the 12 most forget.
Last year my daughter was in first grade, she memorized the preamble to the Declaration of Independence. We homeschool : )
