Module 4 – NH History

In this module we will take a 4th Grade Quiz about New Hampshire, take a virtual tour of the NH State House complete with a hello from Governor Sununu, learn about the Origin of Pineapple and hear about how New Hampshire saved the world with the Portsmouth Peace Treaty. Not to mention how Washington DC’s cherry trees were gifted because of NH’s role in the Portsmouth Peace Treaty.
