Elections 08...In November


This week we are working on an election 08 lapbook I purchased from Five in a Row. We get to keep track of the election, we have information on each candidate and we get to learn all about the president of the USA. They kids will get to vote right along with Mom for the new President. We'll be watching the news channels to keep track of which state goes to which candidate. Then when all the votes are counted we will have a new President!





At the same time we'll be rowing the book In November. A wonderful book about what happens to nature during the month of November. What we eat and about one special day in November where we travel far to share a special meal with loved ones.
Geography: how far do we travel for Thanksgiving(map)
Science: migration, adaptation, hibernation, dormancy & weather in November
Vocabulary words: migration, adaptation, hibernation, dormancy
Art: draw nature in November
