4th Grade: November 9, 2016

Today in class we continued our unit "Las Islas."  We read a few short paragraphs and began filling out a Venn Diagram about the similarities and differences between the two places. 

Ask your student:
  • What are some similarities and differences between Mackinac Island and the Dominican Republic?  (In class today, we talked about the fact that they have a lot of schools and cars in the DR, while on Mackinac Island there is only one school and no cars.  Both places have a lot of tourists.)
