Charlie did the Social Science portion of the Stanford practice test today. We reviewed interesting information from research about Columbus and his ships. We also reviewed what we learned last week about U.S. government, civics, and geography. We read about the importance and application of geography to today's world. We also read about ancient civilizations' contributions towards the study of geography - astronomy, archaeology, tectonic plates, cartography, the themes of geography, etc. We reviewed oceans and land. Charlie began an activity about time zones. We will continue in our next class. We discussed projects for next week - ancient civilizations board game and SchoolHouse Rock video/song about Communism.

Lesson Comments
It was very difficult for Charlie to focus today. He could not recall basic geography and government facts, even after he played our board game two times last week. For example, he could not keep straight the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and where they are located We keep going back to things he has learned - to practice and repeat - to get it to "stick" hopefully!
