THE DOUGHNUTS
BIBLE:
Memory Verse:
Jordan added John 10:11 in his FIAR notebook and memorized it while rowing this chapter.
SOCIAL STUDIES:
The Red Cross:
I ordered Brave Clara Barton to accompany this unit.
Telephones & Operators:
I added a clip about operators on our Homer Price playlist.
I had Jordan read Listen Up! Alexander Graham Bell’s Talking Machine for this unit.
SCIENCE:
New Tech – Labor Saving Devices:
Jordan perused through the Usborne Then and Now book to see how life has changed with labor saving devices.
Economics – Supply & Demand:
As suggested, Jordan read about supply and demand from Whatever Happened to Penny Candy.

Design Your Own Sandwich Board:
Jordan decided to make his sandwich board with our dry-erase board. He really enjoyed this assignment.
Making Doughnuts:
Jordan whipped up the yeasted dough and we wet it aside to rise. Once risen, he rolled out the dough and it yielded about two dozen donuts and donut holes.
This was the most delicious baked donut recipe I’ve ever had! They were simply delicious!
Illustrating Movement:
I brought out our Make Way for McCloskey book and thumbed through some of his illustrations, marveling at his ability to sketch movement.
HELPFUL LINKS:
Chapter Book GRAB BAG:
I created a Grab Bag for the Homer Price FIAR Unit. The Grab Bag series is a collection of worksheets and/or activities that I created while studying the FIAR Chapter Book units with my children.
You can purchase your copy HERE at our TPT Store.
*NOTE: Please be aware that any printable from the Grab Bag series may have worksheets that are similar and/or the same as those available in our other printables. We try to include anything that could enhance your student(s) learning experience as you row the chapter book series.
Pinterest Board:
You can find most of the activities, ideas, and printables from this post on our Homer Price Board
Youtube Playlist:
As with our other rows, we created Homer Price playlist with read-alouds, music, science, and other clips.
