They will explore museums, including the Smithsonian Institution and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Working political monuments such as the Supreme Court and the United Nations will also be discussed. Near the end of the book, students will learn about national parks and preserves.

4 The Capitol Building The United States Congress meets in the Capitol Building, located in Washington, D.C. When George Washington ( ) was president, members of Congress met in several different cities. In 1790, they decided to choose a permanent location for the capital. The states of Maryland and Virginia gave land for what is known as the District of Columbia, or Washington D.C. Washington, D.C. was named after our first president. It is not part of any state. A physician named William Thornton designed the Capitol Building. On September 18, 1793, George Washington laid the cornerstone of the Capitol Building. The Capitol is mostly built of white marble. The dome is made of iron. A sculpture of a woman decorates the top of the dome. She represents freedom. During the War of 1812, British soldiers burned the Capitol building. It was rebuilt after the war. Since its construction in the 1700s, the Capitol Building has been expanded to more than twice its original size. Important parts of the building include the Rotunda (directly under the dome), the Senate Chamber in the north wing, the House Chamber in the south wing, the President s Room, and the National Statuary Hall.
