Hello Families!
Your kids have done a SPECTACULAR JOB this week! Today, they are finishing up their North American maps. See a sample to the left. On their maps, they have found and labeled all of the countries of North America, several major bodies of water, lakes, rivers, mountain chains, all 50 states, 6 major regions, and the nation's capital. Beyond that, they have practiced patience and perseverance -- breaking down a HUGE assignment into manageable bites! I'm very proud of them, and I know you are too--ask them about their map, or maybe even better, ask them how it feels to have it DONE! :)
Tomorrow, we are jumping into the deep end of Westward Expansion! Westward Ho!!! :)
