"Calling All Poets!": Time for Kids, January 22, 2010

Read through this issue of Time for Kids. Definitely read "Earthquake Rocks Haiti" on p. 2 since we just talked about that yesterday.

Then, read "Calling All Poets!" on p. 2-3. I think you are all so funny and creative; this is perfect for you! Write a funny, rhyming poem on the blog tonight. Maybe later you can revise and publish your poem so we can submit it to the contest!

"The Tourtoise and the Solar Plant": Time for Kids January 15, 2010

Read the article on p. 6 "The Tortoise and the Solar Plant". This is a really difficult decision! Do you think they should build the solar plant or not? Explain why or why not including several reasons.
