Traveling Journals

Our journals are traveling in every direction! Some went east (Vicki's to the Sommers in Maine; Austin's to the Ficklen's in Suffolk, VA-home of Planter's Peanuts), some went south (Samson's visited the Moores in Corpus Christie, TX) while others went west (Sydne's to San Diego and Mikella's to Cary's in CA and Chris's in WA) or north (Jack's to Detroit, Michigan). Garrett's went overseas to the Ernsts in Germany and back. Now it's on its way to AZ!

The Great Kapok Tree

I hope everyone had a wonderful winter break! We are back to work on our erosion unit in science. We should have a test sometime next week.

We will be reading The Great Kapok Tree in reading for the next 2 weeks. Here are some fun activities to go along with our story.
