Here we are, using Google Earth today. We were looking up coordinates of mystery cities in the world and writing down the names of the cities. Then we used the first letters of the cities to spell out a mystery word. The word was "Cherokee", and we read about the Cherokee tribe in Social Studies. We learned about how the government made them move off of their land because the settlers wanted the gold on their land. They made them walk from the southeast to Oklahoma, and thousands of them died.
Today we took a spelling test on Spelling City (online) and it was really easy (Ashley says!). We did Cannonball Clowns on Gizmos - it was place value game where we had to shoot the clown out of a cannon on the computer. We are learning about Cherokee Indians and the Trail of Tears. For lunch we had pigs in a blankets and cake, and it was really good.
