The third quarter has just begun and we are traveling the world! Author and illustrator Jan Brett (janbrett.com) is our guide as we read some of her many books and plot our course on our travel map. Visit her web site and you can travel with us!
This time of year also means letter writing. We already wrote thank you notes to parents for Christmas gifts. Next, the second and third graders will be writing friendly letters to Jan Brett using some of her own stationery from her web site. Lastly, the students will write a letter to the U.S. President, George W. Bush.
States of matter are next on our science agenda. Here's a question for you: What happens to an air-filled balloon when the air temperature is below freezing? We shall find out!
