In E.L.A. / Social Studies. . .

• We finished module 3 of our language arts curriculum. And we started a unit on woman's rights.

• We started a book called The Hope Chest. We read the first chapter on Tuesday, the chapter was about a girl who found out her mom was hiding letters from her older sister. 

• We took our second field trip to the MCC Resource Center. For about half the time we took a tour of the back rooms of the Depot. We got to see a giant machine that compacted clothes into a tight bundle. There were so many clothes, there were bins overflowing onto the ground. And books! There were bins with them to. Some books would be too big and they would have to recycle books. And there was a ton of junk.

• The second half we packed school kits!
