Week 3

This week we discovered our class is packed full of talented and amazing kiddos!!!

First, we talked about setting and what it means.  We found that our book, Lentil, is set in Alto, Ohio during the early 1900's.

We read the book and were on the look out for American flags.  There were a lot of them.  We came to the conclusion that the people in Alto love America.  We talked about the stars, stripe and colors of the flag.  Then we each made our own flag to show that WE LOVE AMERICA.

We also discussed the characters in our book.  Lentil could not sing but discovered another talent--playing the harmonica.  We then talked about ALL the MANY talents that you can have and develop.  We each pledged to go home and use one of our talents to make someone else be happy.

Next week, we will discuss why the grumpy character Sneep sucked on a lemon!!!  We will be doing a little taste testing.  And hopefully, we will build a block city.

Your kids are TERRIFIC!
