Wow!  It's hard to believe it is already October.  We are all looking forward to some cooler weather.  We completed another busy week.  We will finish up Antarctica this week and move on to Japan.  We are reading a book about Commodore Perry.  We finally finished Island of the Blue Dolphins and are now reading The Master Puppeteer.  In science, we are learning about the skeletal system. 

                                        I know the skull is missing.  It's a long story...trust me. 

We continue to enjoy our days together.  I am so thankful we are able to stay at home and learn together.
