Alabama History & Reading

We are studying Indians in AL History.  We also have many Indian stories through out our reading books.  I am going to mix things up and we will begin reading the stories about Indians over the next couple of weeks in reading.  The stories will be located in different reading books, such as this week we are reading from our Salute to Courage, Trails to Explore and Flags Unfurled.  We try to read 3 stories each week in reading and cover a literary skill, along with vocabulary words.  This week our literary skill is still main ideas.

We are also beginning a project in AL History on Indian Homes.  The children will choose an Indian home to build and write a report on.  This is the student's project, yet I understand that some parental help will be needed but please let the your child do most of the work.  I will send home a letter explaining the project further.
