3rd Grade - Today's vocabulary word was Soporific which means sleep inducing. The explorer was James Earl Jones who overcame a stuttering problem in order to become the well known voice of many characters we know today.. Students played 20 questions for the warm-up activity. There was a brief discussion about the cause and effect of not having a government or laws. Students ended the series on Abel's Island by discussing what we knew about Able's friend Gower and what we could infer about him. They also tried to build a shelter from given materials.
