Eisenhower and the Interstate Highway

Eisenhower and the Interstate Highway is a 9-page digital printable history lesson. This lesson is good for the 4th to 8th grade.

It talks a little bit about how cars became common in the United States, telling the story about the Wisconsin competition and race.

Next the lesson moves into a pretty funny and interesting to learn story about an American Army Convoy that inspired President Eisenhower to propose and fund the interstate highway system that we have today.

This is good for about the 4th to 8th grade. It has 3 sections with open ended questions after each section.

It's a great addition to any American History Curriculum that you may already have but does not include some of the more niche and fun stories from history.

This is a digital resource.
