Arianna added another goal - ballerina - to her chart. We looked at a map showing three continents and The Red Sea. We charted the course of Arianna's cruise ship. She was able to guess that this was the route based on her identification of countries. I was very impressed that she wrote a wonderful written response to "If I Were President…." She used complete sentences, punctuation and excellent handwriting. We also looked at a map of the United States to see landmarks and to identify the state based on the landmark. Finally, we talked about the three branches of government and made a 3D foldable book explaining what each branch of government does. We read about the government and learned about what happens in the White House and the Capitol Building.
