I've never been to Indiana. Luckily, I know a few people from Indiana who were able to give some suggestions on places in Indiana to include in our virtual visit, and we definitely have a wish list should we ever find ourselves in the area, including the very cool Children's Museum in Indianapolis.
Books:
Mayor Pete by Rob Sanders
H is for Hoosier: An Indiana Alphabet by Cynthia Furlong Reynolds
Indiana (My United States: A True Book) by Tamara Orr
Rhymes of Childhood by James Whitcomb Riley
(Riley was known as as “the Hoosier Poet” and “the Children’s Poet” during his lifetime.)
Madame C.J. Walker Builds a Business (Rebel Girls chapter book)
Major Taylor, Champion Cyclist by Lesa Cline-Ransome
Wake Up, Woods, by Michael Homoya, Shane Gibson, and Gillian Harris

| Valparaiso Popcorn Festival |
The kids decided to depict the Valparaiso Popcorn Festival, showing a banner and float going down the street. Made using a mix of sharpie, oil pastel, and water color (sky and concrete).
