2nd Grade Legendary Learning Extensions for 10/15

This week, we enjoyed learning about Africa by reading A Country Far and Away.  Most of you decided that you didn't want to live on that continent. Before next week's class, I would like you to read and learn a little bit more about Africa.  After you read the article in the following link, I'd like you to answer the thinking question that follows.


Thinking Question:  Please write the answer in your journal.

If you could visit Africa, what would you want to see?  Please explain in detail your choices.  I'd like you to write in complete sentences so I can understand what you want to see and why.

Other choices for learning this week:
  1. Write in your journal about something fun that you did this week.  Draw a picture if you like.
  2. Master some new skills on Khan Academy.
  3. Read a good book
  4. Think about something that you worked hard on this week.  It doesn't have to be at school.
Have a great week!
