After school tutoring is going great! We just finished reading a book called Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricial MacLachlan and the students really enjoyed it. They created Bloom's balls to help them understand the story and the historical period in which it was set. They did an outstanding job on the projects. I will have pictures up shortly along with the activity that explains what they did.
If you haven't read the book yet, it is well worth your time. Jacob is a lonely man who lost his first wife in childbirth. He has two children to raise in pioneer Kansas and has no opportunity to meet others as they live so far out in the prairie on a farm. Read to find out what Jacob has to do to find a wife for himself and a mother for his children. The book is written from one of the children's point of view.
Have a great day!
