  • End of School Countdown: Planning for Summer
    • ]]>     In continuing with our patriotic theme from last week, we are going to learning about Abraham Lincoln this week.  As our 16 president and fellow KY native, Abraham Lincoln provides an unusual close up of an American president and encourages KG to be further interested in our country’s history.

    We will be reading several books pertaining to Abraham Lincoln, including Abe Lincoln Remembers and If You Grew Up With Abraham Lincoln {affiliate link}. We will, of course, be getting these from our local library on Monday.  We are also planning a trip to Hodgensville this weekend to visit President Lincoln’s birthplace.  In addition to her spelling lists and math worksheets, we’ll be looking at famous quotes by the famous President.

    Here is a breakdown of the upcoming week:
