The kids continued with their journal. After reading the sixth chapter they had to complete questions about the chapter and they wrote a letter to William.  They also made predictions, wrote chapter titles, asked question, and  made connections about the story. (I used www.teacherspayteachers.com for the journal paperwork).













History-(Life on the Prairie, Laura Ingalls Wilder)
Sarah asks the children about winter time on the prairie. This gave us the opportunity to learn more about Prairie life. Lily and Aj read a reading comprehension worksheet about prairie life. They also answered questions. Then we read some  books about prairie life, played games and wrote with pen and ink.






Fine Arts-(The Killdeer-A fine subject for drawing)
In the story Anna hears a Killdeer cry. Lily and Aj decided to learn what kind of bird a Killdeer is. They also learned how to draw them.
