Spelling Words and Homework

I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend. Today we had a lot of fun learning about what life was like on the Mayflower and we also learned about earthquakes and plate tectonics. Ask your student what Pangaea was.

Here's tonight's homework:

1. Read 20 mins
2. Pilgrim journal - 3 entries about life on the Mayflower (remember they sailed from August to November 1620). Each entry must be at least 1 paragraph. You may email it to me tonight or turn it in tomorrow.
