Smokies Project

    Our third grade class is currently exploring and studying life in the Great Smoky Mountains before it became a national park as well as the present.  We are studying different communities located within the Smokies such as Roaring Fork, Cades Cove, and Cataloochee among others.  Below you will find links to several of our favorite sites that relate to the Smokies.  You will also find information about our projects and other items we have generated in connection with our research.  Please feel free to email us with any questions, suggestions, or additional information regarding our research.  Please note that this is a work in progress so please be patient as we continue to add to our site.
