Hello and welcome to group 6's wiki. We went on a trip to Ellis Island, New York to get information about the Statue of Liberty. After talking to a few of the New York natives, they said that they love the Statue of Liberty because it is a symbol of freedom. First we had to read her tablet and it said July IV MDCCLXXVI, that means July 4, 1776. Then I looked up, at her crown and it had 7 rays, one for each continent. Another thing we learned is that it was designed by a French man named **// Brother Frederic A. Bartholdi. //** Here is the best part, we got to go inside! In total there were 154 steps from the pedestal to the head. Her new torch was covered in 24 karat gold and her face is more than 8 feet tall. Then we went to the gift shop and got these posters below:
