If your child hasn't informed you, we finished our entire Social Studies textbook last week! They are very excited about this accomplishment!
I have asked them to create a list of topics they are interested in learning more about and we plan to study them through the end of the year. The first topic of interest is Native American Indians. Each student is studying a tribe and will be preparing an in-class presentation to share with their peers. As a class we will also study the Cahokia tribe famous for the Cahokia Mounds historic site in Collinsville. I am in the midst of planning a field trip to the Mounds and museum the first week of April (if it's available). Are any of you (or grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.) interested in coming along? I'm not sure I'll be up for climbing Monk's Mound at 9 months pregnant, but perhaps some of you will be up for the challenge?! Let me know. Thanks!
