During reading and writing we focused on learning about American Symbols. I was afraid that this might be a little dry, but it proved to be very engaging. We learned so much about The American Flag, The Bald Eagle and The Statue of Liberty. Please ask your child what they remember. The American Symbol book will come home next week. We still need to read about The Capital and The Lincoln Memorial.
One of the exciting things we happened upon was the Berry College Eagle Cam. I always show the children this sometime during the year, but this time we turned it on and the eagle was sitting on an EGG! So thrilling. The egg was laid on Monday, December 13 and will hatch in 35 days. It will be fun to watch the eaglet grow in January. Check it out if you have a moment.
