It was good to get back to the routine today. We started learning more about Europe and decimals. We also went through the study guide for the science test tomorrow. We started reading Treasure Island today as well. On the right hand side under links is a link to a favorite web site of mine. It is called Librivox. People take books that are in the public domain and read them out loud. They then make a recording of that available for free download. Treasure Island is one of the books that is available. If your student would like to follow along and listen to the book, or if you want to listen to it yourself, it is available for you. I would ask that any students who listen to it also read along as they do. Thanks!

On another note, our prezis went well. I have given the students their next country but we won't be doing those until some time next year. Some students are very excited and have been working on them already, but I wanted to make sure that everyone knows that they are not due for a long time yet.
