Reading for Week of October 19-23, 2015
For reading this week, we will continue to read from The Captive by Scott O'Dell. Julian is on the ship with Don Luis and Captain Roa. They have landed on an island that Don Luis has named Isla Arroyo. When Don Luis found the inhabitants of the island, the chieftain was wearing a necklace of gold and pearls. This interested Don Luis! It is obvious that Don Luis is just interested in the gold, but Julian is interested in converting these Indians into Christians.
This week, the children will read from Chapter 8 through Chapter 12 and answer questions. Can Don Luis claim this island for himself? Will Don Luis get all the gold and pearls for himself?

History for Week of October 12-16, 2015
On Tuesday October 13, we will have a test over the Vikings. If the children will bring their study guide to school on Tuesday, they will earn 100 just for bringing the study guide. This is not a 100 on the test, it is an easy way to make a 100 plus what you make on the test.
After the test we will review lines of longitude and latitude. The children will have a short period of time to improve their lines on longitude and latitude on their pumpkin for a grade.
Then we will move on to Chapter 16 in A History of US, A New Land Discovered. They will also have questions to answer for this chapter.

The children are struggling with the concept of graphing on a coordinate grid. I have decided to begin this unit again and to spend more time on it. I realize there is a lot of new vocabulary in this unit and we need to understand the vocabulary before we understand the concept. We will spend all week on this concept and hopefully by Friday, everyone will be saying, "Oh! That's easy!"
