Arianna and I reviewed states and their capitals - Florida and Missouri - and learned three more today - California, New York and Texas. We reviewed longitude and latitude, the continents and oceans, regions, and natural resources. We discussed again the gold rush of 1849 and the changes that occurred in California as a result. We created a colorful geographic reminder/model so Arianna could understand the size of each and remind her of: our continent, our country, our state, our county, and our city. We did the same for both Missouri and Florida. We read a Newsela article about moving the treasures from ancient Egyptian tombs to a new, larger home. Finally, we revisited the U.S. Constitution and practiced using new vocabulary to understand the content and structure of the document.
