Prayer: Garrett
Pledge: Anna
Theme: Marilee
Quote: Tommy
Treasurer: Lauren
Show & Tell: Talmage

Read at Home: bring a book (or at least the title) of a book you recently read and enjoyed. Tell us what you like about it and why you would recommend it.

For next week, start reading Owls in the Family by Farley Mowat.

Poems: review all of the poems that we have learned so far. Vanguard cash for any you can recite from memory!

Writing: Write a thank you note for one of your Christmas gifts. Include a comment specific to the gift and what you like about it as well as a comment about the person who gave it to you. Mail or hand deliver the note.

Geography:
Pick one country from the list and come ready to present on it.
China, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Mongolia, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia.  

Choose any country to learn about in more detail and present to us. You can work on the same country as your siblings, or you can choose a different country. You will have 1-2 minutes to tell us all about your country. You can present it as a report, or do a slideshow, or make a poster, or draw pictures, or do anything you like to make it how you like it.

You could include things like:

   • A famous landmark

   • The country's capital

   • Picture of the flag

   • When did they become a country

   • The country motto

   • The country nickname

   • An interesting fact

   • What is the climate

   • What kind of weather do they have?

   • What do they grow?

   • Show us where it is on a map

   • Someone famous that lived there or still lives there.

If you want to do a little more, you can bring something to share like a food from that country, or some display items if you know someone that has been there or something the country is known for doing like making clothes or plastic or anything else you can think of.

You will earn Vanguard money for being prepared!
