Theme: Balloon Flight...why do people go in hot-air balloons
when they can travel by airplane? Some brainstorming ideas we came up with
were: for fun, adventure, pretty scenery, a hobby, a competition/race. This
week we're reading an expository story, Up in the Air. We are
learning about the scientists/ inventors who created hot-air balloons, and the
discoveries that they made. We are also finding out about the first brave men
and women (and animals) who were passengers in these amazing balloons.
Our skill for the week: Fact/ Opinion. A fact is information
that can be verified (proven true or false), where as an opinion is what someone thinks or feels about
something. Here is your vocabulary for the week, along with your vocabulary
game!
