Did you know that GNRA includes many sites that were important in defending America from attacks from the sea, from the Revolutionary War through World War II?!
This park is an excellent resource not just for science teachers but also for teachers of history. Ft. Wadsworth, Ft. Tilden, Floyd Bennett Field, Sandy Hook and others all played important roles in many of our American battles.
Why not do a project on the role of the local parks in our military history? Pick a war, then pick one of the locations, and explain why it was important, tell some exciting stories that took place there, and identify some famous people who have visited! Click here to get started on your research!
