Gracyn and I discussed a news article for the school newspaper. She will write about the chicken eggs she is incubating and hatching with Ms. Caroline. We worked on that article today and will finish in our next class. We worked through an exercise with illustrations about long ago versus present time relative to food, travel, houses, clothing and feasts. We read in the text about income, money, factories and products, goods, trade from other countries, and transportation. We used "fake" money to work on buying and selling and making change to purchase goods. She enjoyed this. We reviewed fact and fiction, fact and opinion, goods and services, jobs and money.
