<h1>🖋️ Who Were the Founding Fathers?</h1>
<h2>Week 26 • Monday • The Leaders Who Built a Nation</h2>
<section class="lesson-section">
<h3>📖 Reading Time</h3>
<div class="reading-box">
<p>When America decided to become free, it needed wise leaders to help build the new country. We call these leaders the <strong>Founding Fathers</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>George Washington</strong> led the army and later became the first president. <strong>Thomas Jefferson</strong> wrote the Declaration of Independence. <strong>Benjamin Franklin</strong> was an inventor, printer, and wise helper. <strong>John Adams</strong> spoke bravely for freedom.</p>
<p>The Founding Fathers did not agree on everything. They argued, talked, and listened to each other. But they shared one big dream: a country where the people would rule themselves. This week you will meet these leaders and read their most famous words!</p>
