silent consonants mb and kn. As long as we have a full week of school we will

President’s Day
This week we celebrated
President’s Day by learning about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. We
made President’s Day Flip Flap Books. We
went on a virtual field trip via Google Earth. On this field trip we visited
the birthplace of Washington and Lincoln, went to the Lincoln Memorial and the
Washington Monument in DC, and visited Mount Rushmore. With Google Earth we were able to see these
places in 3D and from street level. This is an amazing tool and better yet, we
traveled for free!
Book Orders
Orders are due on Monday,
