My daughter has a project due and we need some help. She has to come up with a slogan that would be on covered wagon during the Alamo or when TX wanted their independence from Mexico. We recently moved here from Maine (originally from NY) so I am not familiar with TX history at all and my daughter is having a hard time remembering things they learned, she can't bring her text book home it's not allowed. So if anyone has a clever idea or can point me in the direction of website so we could research I'd appreciate it. TIA
My daughter came up with NO,NO Mexico! What do you think?
"Remember the Alamo" was the slogan of the times. Since the Texans were defeated at the Alamo, this was their call to arms.
Link to letters from the Alamo:

My husband is a TX History Teacher and I just asked him your question - here is a website he said to go to that would give you some great info :)

Go to www.dennydavis.net then subject index and "t" for Texas and there is all sorts of ideas there. Good luck! I use this site a lot of cute scrapbooking titles, too.
Best to you!
"We may have lost the Alamo, but that won't happen again...WE ARE HERE!"
Enjoy Texas!
Hello fellow NYer. I am originally from Queens.
How about "Davey Crocket wuz here", lol.
I'm brainstorming for you.Will chime in with some more if I can think of any.
BTW,welcome to TX.

"The Alamo" a place you'll always remember!
We're from Fl and we are like the one bumper sticker...
we weren't born here but we got here as fast as we could!
good luck
also, my ds said that her book may have a website, that the newer ones have ones for them to use at home.
For what's it's worth, I think the classroom only books are ridiculous.
"No, No, We won't go!"
1.Sam Houston for President.
2.Got Freedom? (like got milk?)
3.Forget the Alamo, remember San Jacinto. (because San Jacinto was the actual battle where Texas defeated Mexico).
But honestly, I actually like your daughters because she came up with it and its cute.
No No Mexico seems as appropriate as anything. :) Congrats to your little one.
