How are you this morning? As we prepare for a new week I wanted to bring you Free Topics for the week of Dec. 30 – Jan. 5. These will help you prepare your school lessons for the New Year. I hope you’re enjoying your holiday break! If you use these resources come back and let me know what you thought of the resources.
December 30 is #BaconDay! Most people will probably be celebrating by procuring (arguably) the most popular pork product. However, no matter what you eat today, you’ll be consuming the sun’s energy!
Celebrating the Chinese New Year
Most countries observe their New Year with a few days of celebrations. However, the Chinese new year lasts for 15 days…
Think of all the lesson plans you’d have to catch up on!
On January 3, 1496 Leonardo Da Vinci tested a “flying machine” he’d created. Although the flight was unsuccessful, it was 400+ years prior to the Wright Brothers‘ attempt. Now THAT’S a Renaissance Man!
January 4 is #WorldBrailleDay. Did you know that Louis Braille–the inventor of
Braille--adapted an existing military code in the mid-1800’s to create the Braille system?
The first known bird appeared about 150 million years ago, back when dinosaurs still roamed. It’s one of the reasons these species have influenced so many of our inventions—from pens to airplanes!
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
