Back to New England

Today we head back to the New England states in our KONOS study of the states and regions. There were several things that we haven't completed and lots of recipes still to prepare. More whales, finishing up Seabird, Carry On, Mr. Bowditch, cranberries, clam chowder, Boston baked beans and lots of writing and notebooking. Back to real life!! Oh, and a huge mound of laundry as well.

Some of my favorite resources for this unit are Red-Flannel Hash and Shoo-fly Pie by Lila Perl, the Exploring History through Simple Recipes published by Blue Earth books and the States and Capitals Songs from Audio Memory. These three resources will be used throughout this unit. Can you tell I like to incorporate FOOD? And if you can sing it, it sure is easier to memorize.

Your daugher Lauren is about a year older than my Elizabeth, and I can't believe you have grandkids!!! just precious. Devin looks like I remember you! She is a year ahead of my Jonathan. My baby will be a teenager wednesday. It has been a long time! I just joined facebook and have become addicted as well! I will tell the siblings hello.
