February 25 Journal

Hi. Today work in Study Island for 15 minutes, then we will do our presentations, and spend the rest of the time in class working on the Gettysburg Address rewrite. Remember- I WANT TO GO TO SPRINGFIELD!


  1. National Pancake Week is celebrated in February. Create a recipe for a pancake sandwich that uses two pancakes in place of bread. What will you call your sandwich creation?

  2. The first president of the United States, George Washington, was born of February 22, 1732. Imagine that you pull a dollar out of your pocket and the picture of George Washington begins to talk to you. Write about the conversation that you have with him.

Pancakes! The best pancake 'sandwich' would have 2 pancakes as the bread, with your favorite breakfast foods in the middle. Maybe you'd want bacon and eggs? Sausage? Or even a pancake sandwich with a pancake in the middle! Delicious.
