Could You Pass An 8th Grade History Quiz on Virginia?
Have you ever watched that TV show, "Are You Smarter Than an 8th Grader"? Or maybe it's 5th grader. Either way, have you ever gone through questions with your child in their history books and can't remember one thing about what you learned when you were that age?
If you're challenged by your 8th grader about the history of Virginia, good luck. I'd bet all my cards on your 8th grader. Remember Jamestown, Virginia being founded in 1607, and it was the first permanent English settlement in North America and slavery was introduced there in 1619? You're probably nodding your heads like that sounds familiar, but almost guaranteed, you couldn't remember the years like your child did. I'm sure there are quite a few more things your 8th grader could tell you about Virginia.
