“George Washington in Society” historical paragraph from page one of the free printable history fill in the letters game & worksheet:

George Washington in Society: The greater part of George Washington's life was spent in the Revolutionary War or as the first President of the United States. When people saw him, he was usually at the head of a column of soldiers or at some official government event. Although he felt that he represented the American people, as a general of the army or as a political official, he was as stern and cold as any European king or emperor. In private life, however, he was quite another man. He was especially fond of having young people tell jokes and enjoyed good-humored people as his companions. He particularly liked dancing the popular dances of the time, and on one occasion he danced for three hours without once sitting down. There were no circuses in those days, but when a dancing bear came to New York while Washington was President, he greatly enjoyed the performances.  Source: First Lesson of History 1908
