We are excited to have Mr. Peterson here with us in our class. Mr. Peterson is a student teacher from Utah Valley University who will be teaching in our class until the end of November. Today was his first day teaching.
The starter for today: If you could go anywhere in the world where would you go? Why would you go there?
Mr. Peterson gave each class 15 minutes to work on The First Americans assignment. This is due next class time.
He then introduced the idea of explorers - including reasons for exploration and some of the early European explorers. We read a historical account of Portugal's Prince Henry's reasons for exploration and compared how his reasons were the same or different from reasons that we might have for exploring.
