Mandibles Monday

Today we read The Life and Times of the Ant in Journeys. We will also forge ahead in Percy Jackson. We carved out some time to read our library book club books, meet with book club members,  and respond in our reading notebooks.

The Southeast region is our Social Science destination. Today, we will get to know the states and capitals, and will explore the region's geography.

This evening at home....

• finish reading The Life and Times of the Ant.
• as you read,annotate the text using post it notes. I will be checking! This can count as your nightly reading.
