I hope you enjoyed your "snow day!" It did not stick at our house, but I enjoyed seeing my son touch snow for the first time. :)
Our literacy and focus today was on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We discussed the importance of Dr. King's dream, treating everyone equal no matter what they look like, and why we will be out of school Monday.
"Turn the pages of this book to find out what dream Dr. King shared with the world, who Mohandas Gandhi was, how one brave woman helped Martin Luther King Jr. change history."
Buy this book {here} at Amazon.
"Long before he became a world-famous dreamer, Martin Luther King Jr. was a little boy who played jokes and practiced the piano and made friends without considering race. But growing up in the segregated south of the 1930s taught young Martin a bitter lesson -- little white children and little black children were not to play with one another. Martin decided then and there that something had to be done. And so he began the journey that would change the course of American history."
In science with Ms. Jenna, the students learned about guinea pigs and regular pigs!
