As we near the end of our first unit of inquiry, The Navigators began to apply thier knowledge to thier own community of Houston. We learned a little about Santa Ana, The Alamo and how important Sam Houston was to our history. We discovered that he was named the first president of The Republic of Texas. The Allan brothers wrote ads trying to get people to move to the bayou city. At first, Houston was going to be the capital, but people complained about the mosquitos so they moved the captial to Waterloo. Waterloo later became known as the city of Austin.
