Building a Common House

We made it to North America, created a Compact to agree on the rules for our new colony, and now it is time to build the colony.  The kids learned how everyone had to work together to build the Common House, the first structure in Plymouth Plantation.  Tomorrow we will learn how hard our first winter was and brainstorm ways the Pilgrims could have fared better.

We also found examples of symmetry in nature by looking at shells, leaves, and our bodies.  Then we made a bar graph to demonstrate the favorite dessert of kindergarten.  Both KB and KR classes decided cake was the favorite dessert.
