PROGRESSIVE READER

THE FIVE SENSES

How do you see?

You see with your eyes. Light bounces off what you
see. The black spot in your eyes get the picture.
The eyes send a message to your brain.
Your brain tells you what you see.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

THE FIVE SENSES

How do you hear?

You hear with your ears. The outside of your


ear catches the sounds. A tunnel into your
head sends the message to your brain.
Your brain tells you what you hear.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

THE FIVE SENSES

How do you smell?

You smell with your nose. When you breath,


air comes in. Your nose has hairs in it that
send a message to your brain.
Your brain tells you what you smell.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

THE FIVE SENSES

How do you taste?

You taste with your tongue. Your tongue has


bumps called taste buds all over it. The bumps
taste bitter, sour, salty, and sweet things.
Your tongue sends a message to your brain.
Your brain tells you what you are eating.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

THE FIVE SENSES

How do you feel?

You feel with your skin. Your skin has sensors


under it. When something touches you, or you touch
something, the sensors send a message to your brain.
Your brain tells you what you are feeling.

8O

Lesson 50
Happy for Hugs
For Lesson 50, you will have a Spelling Assessment. You will need a sheet of
paper and a sharp pencil. Listen carefully to your teachers directions!
Reading: You may choose to read either How Do You Feel Today?
Introduced in Lesson 48, or Bear Hugs, introduced in Lesson 46.

Writing: Lets Journal! Your Journal topic is:


Ask a friend or family member how they feel today. Now ask yourself how
do you feel today?
In your Journal, compare and contrast the feelings of you and your friend. Are
you both happy? Lonely? Bored? Is one person sad and the other mad?
Lesson Wrap-Up: We can have many different feelings. Feelings are a
way of thinking. They help us sort through different situations. There are
no right or wrong feelings.

STUDENT MANUAL

LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON 51-1

Lesson 51

Sight words:

soon

A compound word is created when two words join together. Base and ball
become baseball. Lady and bug become ladybug. News and stand becomes
newsstand. You will create more examples with your teacher.
Phonics: We will continue to work on blends, this week we will use long vowel
blends. Complete the Blends Worksheet for more practice with blends.
When your teacher tells you to, use small objects such
as beans, beads, buttons or coins to spell out your
Spelling and Sight Words.
Reading: For Lesson 51, we will read Whiskers.
Does Whiskers remind you of anyone? Can you think
of stories that are similar to this one?
Writing: Its time to Journal! Your Journal topic is:
Do you like indoor or outdoor sports? Why?
Lesson Wrap-Up: Think of compound words like an
addition problem. It is two words added together to
make a new, bigger word.

The United States has many holidays to


celebrate some of the important people and
dates in our history.

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

Christopher Columbus discovered what he


called the New World on October 12, 1492.
We now know this land as The United States
of America. We celebrate his discovery on
the second Monday of October.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

Independence Day is celebrated on the Fourth of


July. This holiday celebrates the Declaration of
Independence that was adopted in Philadelphia
on July 4, 1776. This important paper stated The
United States of America was an independent
country. Every state celebrates the Fourth of July.
Parades, picnics, and reworks are common parts
of the celebration.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

On September 5, 1882 workers took a day off


without pay to participate in the rst Labor Day
parade in New York City. They marched because
they were unhappy with long hours and unsafe
work places. Twelve years later, Congress
declared that the rst Monday in September
would be a day to honor workers.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

Memorial Day was rst celebrated on May 5, 1866


in Waterloo New York. It is a holiday to honor all
those Americans who have died in war. Memorial
Day was originally called Decoration Day because
people would put owers and ags on the graves
of fallen soldiers. We also celebrate Veterans
Day on November 11 to honor all of those, living
and dead, who were or are in the military.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. believed that all


people should be treated equally. He worked
very hard to earn equal rights for everyone. He
organized many peaceful marches and gave
important speeches. His most famous speech
was titled I Have A Dream. We honor his work
and ideas on his birthday, January 15.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

George Washington was the rst president of the


United States. His birthday was February 22.
We celebrate it on the third Monday in February.
Many people simply call this day Presidents
Day because Abraham Lincolns birthday was
also in February.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

U.S. HOLIDAYS

So far we have talked about holidays that honor


a person or date that is important to American
history. The United States has one holiday that
celebrates an animal. Groundhog Day is
celebrated on February 2. The legend says that
if the groundhog can see his shadow when he
comes out of his hole, there will be six more
weeks of winter.

People around the world celebrate the New Year.


There are many different ways to celebrate.

8O

   {# 

;` |

In Spain, it is a tradition that people eat 12


grapes on New Years Eve. This is said to bring
twelve months of good luck. It began long ago
when there was a huge grape harvest. Just before
midnight each person takes 12 grapes one for
every strike of the clock. They put one grape in
their mouth at a time as the clock chimes.

8O

   {# 

;` |  
; 

In China, it is tradition to make paper cuttings for


the New Year. They used to be made with only red
paper and hand cut with scissors and hand painted.
Now they are made in all different colors and some
are made in factories. People frame these works of
art and hang them in the windows of their homes.
The Chinese believe the paper cuttings bring them
good luck for the New Year.

8O

   {# 

;` |  
; 

New Years Day is


thought by many to
be the most important
holiday in Japan. Much
preparation goes into the
celebration, which lasts
for several days. Homes
are given a thorough cleaning. All work is to
be nished. The food is prepared in advance.
Postcards are sent to friends and relatives.
They are given special postage to be delivered
on the rst day of the New Year.

8O

In Argentina, people have many traditions. They


wear their best new clothes for New Years. They
go to church together as a family. Afterward, they
gather at a family members house. There they
enjoy some traditional foods, like pan dulce. They
enjoy the reworks that light up the sky. At the
stroke of midnight, they raise their glasses and
say, Happy New Year! Health, love, work: the
best for this family. And for the poor people who
dont have anything- we hope they are warm
in a house!

8O

   {# 

;` |  
; 

In the southern United States, some people eat


black-eyed peas and turnip greens on New Years
Day. The peas represent copper and the greens
are dollars. They say each pea you eat equals one
dollars worth of earnings. Each serving of greens
equals $1,000 you will make in the New Year.
Many believe you must eat 365 peas on January 1st
to have good luck in each day of the New Year.

WATER EVERYWHERE

Water All Around

Water is in lakes, ponds, and oceans. It ows in


streams and rivers. It is in our bodies and even
in the air we breathe.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

70% of the Earth is covered with water. 97%


of that is saltwater. There is very little fresh
water on the earth.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

Animals and plants need water to live.


How do you use water?

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

Forms of Water

Water can take different forms. Most of the water


we see is a liquid. A liquid takes on the shape of
the container it is in.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

If the liquid gets cold enough, it becomes solid. If


water freezes, it turns to ice. A solid keeps its shape.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

There is water in the form of ice at the North


and South poles. If the temperature is warm,
the ice melts. When it melts, ice becomes
water once again.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

Evaporation

Ocean

If water gets hot, it evaporates. It dries up and


changes from a liquid to a gas. Water that we
cant see is a gas.

Ground Water

Changing Water

Earths water is always on the move. Ice melts and


becomes a liquid. If the liquid gets hot enough, it
evaporates. When it disappears, it is a gas.

8O!

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

The water cycles over and over again. Water


falls as rain. It forms a puddle. The sun warms
up the puddle and it dries up. The water is in
the air as a gas. The water collects in the sky
as clouds. The clouds make rain and the whole
cycle begins again.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

We Need Water

We must have water to live. We can only drink


fresh water. Fresh water is also used for farming
and washing. We need water to ght res.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

WATER EVERYWHERE

Water that is polluted makes people and animals sick.


It is very important to help keep our waters clean.

Grammar:'

When an e is silent, it usually does something special in a word.

Those 5 jobs for silent e are:


1. Make the vowel say its name: When the e is added to the end of
the word it makes the vowel long, like rate or smoke.
2. English words do not end with v or u: We do not hear the e at
the end of these words. It is only there because words in the English
Language do not end with v or u, like have or true.
3. To make the c and g say their second sound, like pace or page.
4. Every syllable needs a vowel: In the English Language, every
syllable must have a vowel, and a silent e creates a syllable, like little
(Did you notice? Syllable uses this rule too!)
5. 8((  +/4

in the word and it doesnt affect the pronunciation, as in the word are.

Reading: Have you ever


traveled? In the story for
Lesson 86 we will be learning
about types of roads, and the
things we see while traveling
on the road.
First we need to review a few
words from our story. They are
everywhere, straight, country,
mountains, tunnels and bridges. Do you know what these
words mean?

STUDENT MANUAL

LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON 86-3

Share your ideas with your teacher.


We will read Roads Go Everywhere aloud.
Writing: Ready, set, Journal! Your Journal topic is:
Write about a long road trip you took with your family. Where did you go?
How long did it take? What did you see along the way?
Lesson Wrap-Up: Roads do go everywhere! Think of some of the different
places roads have taken you: the park, school, the doctor name some
more with your Teacher.

George Washington Carver wore many hats.


He was the rst black scientist. He taught
slaves different ways to farm so they would be
independent. He was a great inventor. He was a
naturalist. He mentored children. He wrote
poetry. He drew and painted.

8O

   {# 

 ; {
\ #

He was born in July of 1864 in the state of


Missouri. George was born a slave because his
mother was a slave. When he was just a baby,
his mom and sister were kidnapped. The slave
owner found George, but his mom and sister
died. He was very sick when he was found and
he almost died too.

8O

   {# 

 ; {
\ #

George was weak from this sickness, so he could


not work as the other slaves did. He wandered
in the elds and drew pictures. He loved to draw
pictures of the wild plants he saw. He was called
the plant doctor.

When slavery was banned, George stayed with


the people who used to own him. The lady of
the house taught George to read and write.

8O

   {# 

 ; {
\ #

When he was thirteen, George went to school in


Kansas. He wanted to go to college there too, but
he was not allowed because he was black. There
were many unfair things done to black people.
George wanted to help change those things.

George was one of the only black students in


his college. He was very good at art and
singing. He also was interested in science so
he graduated with a botany degree.

8O

   {# 

 ; {
\ #

He became the lead teacher at a school in Alabama


for 47 years. He experimented every day. He
invented many plant products. He was famous
for his work with peanuts, pecans and sweet
potatoes. He discovered hundreds of products
with plants.

8O

   {#

\ #

George died in 1943 when he was 78 years old.


The stone on his grave reads: He could have
added fortune to fame, but caring for neither, he
found happiness and honor in helping the world.

George Washington Carver received many honors.


Monuments were built in his honor. George is
part of the Hall of Fame for Great Americans.
In Missouri there is a garden with a statue of
him in the middle of it.

8O

   {# 

 ; {
\ #

George was a simple man with a great mind. He


had important things to say about the things he
saw in the world. Without George we would not
have any of these things: bleach, buttermilk,
ink, paper, plastic, mayonnaise, rubber, shaving
cream, dyes, pavement, and many, many more.

SILLY SAYINGS

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

The English language has many silly sayings.


Usually, we can understand what a sentence
means if we know the meaning of each word.
Idioms are expressions that cannot be understood
from the meaning of the individual words.
With idioms, the combination of words means
something entirely different! Lets take a look.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

If someone says you are t as a ddle, do they


think you look like a ddle? No! This saying means
that you are healthy or in good shape. This saying
comes from the 1600s. A ddle was considered
t if it was well tuned and in good shape.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

If you were asking your mom many questions about


where you will vacation next summer, she might
say, Well cross that bridge when we come to it.
Did you look around, wondering what bridge she
was talking about?

This idiom really means you shouldnt worry about


things that have not happened yet. If a bridge is 10
miles down the road, dont worry if its safe to cross
until you get there. There is no sense worrying
about something that may not be a problem.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

Idioms are often colorful ways of saying


something simple. A true blue friend is one who
is dependable, loyal and faithful. Long ago, the
British wore blue to show that they belonged to a
certain group. Blue was a true color because the
blue dye of the clothes didnt fade quickly. When
you know the history of a saying, it often makes
more sense.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

A big wig is a very important person. This term


comes from the members of the British legal
system who wear white wigs in court.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

In the theater, actors tell one another to


break a leg. It sure doesnt sound like it, but
this is a way to wish someone good luck. The
part that raises and lowers the stage curtain is
sometimes called a leg. When someone uses
this idiom, they are hoping that you get so much
applause that the curtain must be opened and
closed so many times that the stage leg breaks.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

SILLY SAYINGS

As you can see, idioms add a lot of color and


humor to our everyday language. Dont forget
there is often some history to be learned from
them as well. Ask a family member or teacher
to share their favorite idiom with you.

Adapted from a Japanese Folktale

   {# 


;  

In the country of Japan there lived two frogs.


One lived by the sea in the city of Osaka.
The other lived in a stream in the city of Kyoko.

8O

   {# 


;  

One day, they each decided to see another


part of the world.

The frog from Osaka wanted to see Kyoko.


The frog from Kyoko wanted to see Osaka.

8O

   {# 


;  

So on a ne morning they each set out on the


road from Kyoko to Osaka.

But the trip made them both tired.


They came to rest on the top of a hill
between the two cities.

8O

   {# 


;  

When they reached the top, they were surprised


to see another frog!

They began to talk and were happy to hear they


each had the same wish.

It is too bad we are not bigger, said the Osaka


frog, then we could see the city from here and
decide if we want to go on.

8O

   {# 


;  

What if you stand on


my shoulders, said the
Kyoko frog, and we
both stretch out to see
the town we each want
to see.

So the Osaka frog


climbed onto the Kyoko
frogs back and held on.

They stretched up
on their hind legs.
Though their noses pointed to the city they wished
to see, their great eyes lay in the back of their
heads and looked to the city from which they came.

8O

   {# 


;  

Though his nose pointed to Kyoko, the Osaka


frogs eyes looked to Osaka. Dear me! He cried.
Kyoko is just like Osaka. I shall go home.

Though the Kyoko frogs nose pointed to Osaka,


his eyes looked to Kyoko.

If I had known, said the Kyoko frog, that Osaka


was just like Kyoko, I would have stayed at home.

8O

   {# 


;  

They politely said good-bye to each other.


And they hopped home.

And for the rest of their days, they each believed


the two cities to be a copy of the other.

   {# 



Once upon a time there


lived a beautiful maiden
named Rapunzel.

She lived as a slave to


a wicked witch in the
middle of a great forest.

The witch locked her


up in a tall tower.

The tower had no


stairs or doors.

8O

   {# 



It only had a window high up from which Rapunzel


could look out over the village.

Whenever the witch wanted into the tower, she


would say, Rapunzel, Rapunzel, Let down your
golden hair. Rapunzel had wonderful long hair
that was as ne as gold.

8O

   {# 



When she heard the witch call to her, she would


let down her hair 20 yards long- and the witch
would climb up by it.

One day, a prince was riding through the forest.


He passed by the tower and heard someone singing.
It was Rapunzel singing a song to pass the time.
When he saw Rapunzel in the window, he fell in
love with her at once.

8O

   {# 



He looked for a way into the tower, but found no


doors or stairs.

Still, he came back every day to hear Rapunzels


singing and see her at her window.

One day he saw the witch come to the tower.


She called to Rapunzel, Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let
down your golden hair. And up her hair climbed
the witch.

So thats the staircase, is it? thought the Prince.

The next day at dusk, the Prince came to the tower.


He called from below, Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let
down your golden hair.

8O

   {# 



As soon as she let


it down, the prince
climbed up.

At rst, Rapunzel
was scared.

But the Prince


spoke so kindly to her that her fear melted away.

He told her how her song had touched his heart.

He told her he loved her and wished to marry her.


Rapunzel loved him too, and said yes.

8O

   {# 



But how would she escape to go with him? They


planned to trick the witch.

The witch, who was hiding in the forest, saw the


Prince leave Rapunzels tower.
She made her own plans.

The witch cut off Rapunzels golden hair. She


took Rapunzel to a lonely place to hide her.
When the prince came that night, he called to
her, Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your golden
hair. He climbed up only to ndthe witch!

She blinded the Prince and cast him from the


tower. Then she disappeared.

8O

   {# 



The Prince, blind and heart broken, stumbled into


the forest. He ate nothing but roots and berries.
He was so sad that he barely heard the song.

He listened closer. It was


Rapunzels song! As she
drew closer, she saw it was
her Prince! She hugged
him and cried. Her tears
touched his eyes, in a
moment they became
clear again.

8O

   {# 



He could see her and was overjoyed! He took


her to his kingdom. They never saw the wicked
witch again. They both lived happily ever after.

Adapted from an Indian folktale by Swapna Dutta

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

Long ago, when the world was created, there


was only the sun. There was no moon. The sun
never set but shone brightly all the time. People
worked until they were too tired. They did not
have a set time to rest or sleep.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

The creator of the world came to visit.

When did you plant that garden?


Today, the man replied.

When did you dig that pit?


Today, the man replied. There is nothing but today.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

He asked the woman, When was your baby born?

Today, replied the woman, Everything that


has happened, happened today.

The creator understood. The people did not have


any sense of time. There was no night for them
to rest. They were tired.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

He called out to the sun and said, You must set


in the evening and rise in the morning. Then the
people will rest. When you come up again they
will know a new day has started.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

The sun went down that night, and it was dark for the
rst time. The people were scared. and hid inside their
homes. They could not see so they tripped over things.
Some of the old people fell down.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

Their leader said, Lets lie down and rest.


We cant work if we cant see.

So the people lay down and rested. When the sun


came up the next day they felt better.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

But there was still a problem. When the sun


went down in the evening, it was too dark.

When the people went to their homes, once


again they tripped, fell, got hurt and broke
things because it was too dark for them to see.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

The creator came to visit.

Are things better now that you have day and night?

Yes, said the people. We feel much better. But


there is one problem. It is too dark when the sun
sets. We cannot see and we run into things.

I will give you something with less light. It will let


you see at night but will not let you work.

8O

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

And then he created the moon.

It rose softly in the sky and the people could see


by its gentle light.

They did not run into things or hurt themselves.

8O!

   {# 

 ;
 \
 { 

It was a happy life with the sun in the day and


the moon at night. The people thanked the creator.

BIRDS IN SUITS

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

Penguins are strange birds. They have feathers,


beaks, and lay eggs like birds do, but penguins
cant y. They spend part of their lives in water
and part on land. Their webbed feet help them
paddle. Their ippers help move them through
water and slide on their bellies over ice.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

Many penguins live in the coldest part of the


world. Antarctica is one of the continents on
which penguins live. In the winter it is much
colder than your freezer.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

Penguins are specially made for living in


Antarctica. Oil on their feathers helps the
penguin to be waterproof and warm. A layer of
fat under their feathers also keeps their bodies
warm. Their beaks lter salt out of the water
they drink. This way, they get fresh water from
the salty ocean water.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

The back of a penguin is dark and their bellies


are white. This is for camouage. When they
swim underwater leopard seals or orcas cant see
them well. They dont want to be prey for one of
their enemies.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

Penguins dive quickly underwater to feed. They


love sh, krill, and squid. Their beaks have rubbery
spikes inside to hold slippery food.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

Sometimes penguins have to travel many miles


to raise a family. To save energy, they slide on
their bellies. This is called tobogganing. They
can also hop with their feet together to avoid
rocky bits of land.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

BIRDS IN SUITS

Penguins are truly amazing birds!

The Emperor penguin is the largest penguin.


They have an interesting way of raising their young.

8O

   {# 

{ { {\{\~

A male and a female penguin pair up to mate. The


female lays an egg. She gives the egg to the male.
They work together to roll the egg onto the male
penguins feet. If they arent careful the egg will
freeze. If the egg froze, no chick would grow.

Inside the egg a baby penguin grows. The baby


penguin is called a chick. The male puts the egg
under his brood patch. A brood patch is a ap of
skin that helps keep the egg warm.

8O

   {# 

{ { {\{\~

The female goes to the ocean to eat food. The


male must stand on the ice with the egg on his
feet. He joins other male penguins in a huddle.
They stay together to help keep warm. The male
penguins do not eat for three or four months!

8O

   {# 

{ { {\{\~

When spring comes, the chick hatches. The


female returns with a tummy full of food. The
chick puts its head in the females mouth and
gets some food.

The male penguin is very hungry. It is his turn


to eat. While he is shing, the female takes care
of the chick. They take turns feeding and
protecting their chick.

The new chick has soft down. Their adult feathers


will grow as they get older. For now, the chick is

A biome is an area with specic climate, plants


and animals. The freshwater biome includes
lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams. Freshwater
is different from saltwater because it does not
have much salt in it.

8O

   {# 

 ;


The temperature in ponds and lakes changes with


the seasons. In some parts of the world, the freshwater stays about the same temperature all year. In
other parts of the world, the temperature in ponds
and lakes changes with the seasons. In winter, they
may get cold enough for the water to freeze.

8O

   {# 

 ;


Animals live in different parts of the water. In


the shallow parts, plankton live. Plankton are
small organisms that freshwater sh love to eat!
Frogs, snails, clams, and insects also live in
lakes and ponds.

8O

   {# 

 ;


Like all biomes, freshwater areas have a specic


food chain. The plankton eats water plants, then
small sh eat the plankton, then big sh eat the
small sh. That is how the food chain works.

Rivers and streams are bodies of water that

Land that has lots of standing water is called a


wetland. Standing water does not move anywhere.
It makes the land marshy and soft. Many plants
grow in wetlands. It is home to many birds, reptiles,
ducks, and frogs. Wetlands are not part of the
freshwater biome. Many of them are salty, so they
are not a freshwater habitat.

8O

   {# 

 ;


The freshwater on Earth needs to be protected.


It is the home of many kinds of birds and plants.
We need to keep the water in lakes, ponds, and
rivers clean. Then we can have fresh drinking
water, eat the food from the water, and play in
clean water.

Bed in Summer
By Robert Louis Stevenson

In winter I get up at night,


And dress by yellow candlelight.
In summer quite the other way,
I have to go to bed by day.
I have to go to bed and see
The birds still hopping on the tree,
Or hear the grown-up peoples feet,
Still going past me in the street.
And does it not seem hard to you,
When all the sky is clear and blue,

To have to go to bed by day?

The Owl and the Pussycat


By Edward Lear

The Owl and the Pussy-Cat went to sea


In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money
Wrapped up in a ve-pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
O lovely Pussy, O Pussy, my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!

8O

   {# 

   
{
 ~`

Pussy said to the Owl, You elegant fowl!


How charmingly sweet you sing!
O let us be married! too long we have tarried:

But what shall we do for a ring?


They sailed away, for a year and a day,
To the land where the Bong-tree grows
And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood
With a ring at the end of his nose,
His nose,
His nose,
With a ring at the end of his nose.

8O

   {# 

   
{
 ~`

Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling


Your ring? Said the Piggy, I will.
So they took it away, and were married next day
By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon.

The Rainbow
By Christina Rossetti

Boats sail on the rivers,


And ships sail on the seas;
But clouds that sail across the sky
Are prettier than these.

There are bridges on the rivers,


As pretty as you please;
But the bow that bridges heaven,
And overtops the trees,
And builds a road from earth to sky,
Is prettier than these.

Id rather see than be one.

Under the Willow


Leroy F. Jackson

Put down your pillow under the willow,


Hang up your hat in the sun,
And lie down to snooze as long as you choose,
For the plowing and sowing are done.
Pick up your pillow from under the willow.
And clamber out into the sun.
Get a fork and a rake for goodness sake,
For the harvest time has begun.

Inside the Milky Way galaxy is our solar system.


The main parts of our solar system are the Sun
and the planets that orbit the Sun. There are eight
planets and one dwarf planet that orbit the Sun.
Their names are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.

8O

   {# 

    `


The Sun is a huge spinning ball of hot gas. It is the


center of our solar system. Its light energy gives
life to Earth. It gives us weather and climate.

8O

   {# 

    `


Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. It is


small and rocky and VERY HOT. It has only a
hint of atmosphere. Mercury can be seen from
Earth. It looks like a small star in the night sky.

8O

   {# 

    `


Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It is rocky


and about the same size as Earth. Venus has a thick,
cloudy, poisonous atmosphere. It is too hot and
windy for any life there. At night, Venus looks like
a bright star from Earth.

8O

   {# 

    `


Earth is the third planet from the Sun. It is the


only planet in our Solar System that has life because
it is the right temperature for liquid water. Most
of our planet is water and most of the living things
on Earth are made of water. Without water there
would be no life on Earth.

8O

   {# 

    `


Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun. It has


big canyons and old volcanoes. It is very dry
and has many dust storms. Mars looks like a
dim star with a reddish color. It is sometimes
called the Red Planet.

8O

   {# 

    `


Jupiter is the fth planet from the sun and it is the


largest. It is one of four gas giant planets. That
means it has a thick atmosphere that changes from
liquid to frozen gas. There is always a big storm on
the planet called the Great Red Spot. Jupiter may
be seen from Earth as a dim star in the night sky.

8O

   {# 

    `


Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun. It is a gas giant,


but isnt as big as Jupiter. Saturn has a liquid surface
and is covered with clouds. It is sometimes called the
Ringed Planet because it has rings of ice chunks around
it. Saturn may be seen from earth as a dim star.

8O!

   {# 

    `


Uranus is the seventh planet from the sun. It is


a gas giant with a thick atmosphere. It is a pale
green color. It would take three of these planets
to equal the size of Jupiter. It was the rst planet
to be discovered by telescope. It was found in 1781.
It cannot be seen from Earth without a telescope.

8O

   {# 

    `


Neptune is the eighth planet from the Sun. It


is a gas giant about the same size as Uranus.
The gases in Neptunes atmosphere give it a
blue color. The rst look at Neptune was in
1846 through a telescope.

8O

   {# 

    `


Pluto is past Neptune in its distance from the Sun.


It would take 5 of these planets to equal the size
of Earth. Pluto was discovered in 1930 after
studying a lot of photos of the night sky. Many
astronomers did not think it was a planet but
called it a large comet. For many years, Pluto
was called a planet in our solar system. In 2006
astronomers named it a dwarf planet.

We live on planet Earth. It is estimated that our


planet is about 4.57 billion years old. It is the
third planet from the sun. Earth is the fth largest
planet in our solar system.

8O

   {# 

 

The Earth has four layers: inner core, outer


core, mantle, and crust.
The very center of the
planet is the core. It is
made of the metals iron
and nickel. The inner core
is solid. The outer core is
very hot so the metal is
always molten.

The mantle is the layer above the core. It is


almost 80% of the Earths total volume. The
outer layer is the crust. This is the surface
we live on. It is made up of solid material.
The crust is the thinnest of the Earths layers.

HEALTHY BODY

The human body is amazing! There are many


systems in the body. They work together to keep
you healthy and strong. These systems are: the
musculoskeletal system, the digestive system, the
respiratory system, circulatory system, and the
nervous system. Lets learn more about the body!

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Musculoskeletal System

Your bones hold up your body. They protect the


soft inner parts of you. They also make blood
cells and store minerals.

You can feel your hard bones under your skin.


Joints are where different bones connect. Joints
are like hinges that allow you to bend.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Muscular System

The muscles of your body are bundles of cells


and bers. Muscles hold your bones together
and let them move. Muscles work in a simple
way they tighten up, or contract, and relax.
There are 630 active muscles in your body and
they work together in groups. You can run and
move and breathe because you have muscles.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Digestive System

When you eat, your body uses the food so your


cells can make more energy. Acids and enzymes
eat away at your food to break it down. In the
small intestine, food is broken down so small
that your blood can use it. The food cells are
taken into your blood vessels. Once the energy
is in your blood, it can travel through your whole
body. Eat food that is good
for you, and your body will
have energy all day long!

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Respiratory System

Lungs are the air bags in your chest. When you


breathe in, your body gets oxygen from the air.
When you breathe out, your body gets rid of gases
your body does not need.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

When you exercise, your body needs more oxygen,


so you breathe more air into your lungs.
When your body is resting, it does not need so much
oxygen, so you breathe slowly.

Red blood cells carry oxygen from your lungs to the


rest of your body.

White blood cells are like soldiers that protect the body.
If you are sick, your white blood cells ght the germs.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Circulatory System

Your heart is the most important organ of the


circulatory system. Inside the heart are four
chambers. Each chamber is a little pump. The
pumping pushes blood through your body. If
you look at your wrist you will see blue tubes
under your skin. These tubes are called veins
and arteries.

Veins and arteries are the


highways of the circulatory
system. Veins carry blood
to the heart. Arteries take
blood away from the heart.
Blood circles all the way
around your body in one or
two minutes.

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Put your nger on your wrist and feel your pulse.


This is your heart pumping life in your body.
Count how many times it beats. Now run in
place for a minute. Put your nger on your wrist
and feel your pulse. Is your heart pumping
slower or faster?

8O

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

Nervous System

The brain is the boss of the nervous system. Your


spine and all the nerves of your body carry
messages from the brain to your body.

There are about 30,000 nerve cells


in your body! A nerve cell can
send 1,000 impulses each second.
So if you hold your hand too close
to re, your nerves send the
message quickly to and from your
brain to pull your hand away!

Your nerves tell your brain what you


taste, smell, hear, feel, and see. Your
brain tells your body what do you.

8O!

PROGRESSIVE READER

HEALTHY BODY

At the end of the day, you stop to rest. The systems


of your body need rest. As you sleep, your body
gets you ready for the next day. Resting and
playing, the systems of your body work together
to keep you healthy!

It is important to eat the right foods to fuel your


body. Sometimes it can be difcult to know
which foods to eat. The food pyramid can help
us make good choices.

8O

   {# 

` {

The pyramid contains ve groups. Oils are also


on the pyramid, but they are not a food group.
Our body does need some for good health. Oils
can be found in some of the healthy things we
eat like sh and nuts.

8O

   {# 

` {

The rst section of the pyramid is the grains


group. Grains are things like breads, cereals,
rice, pasta, crackers and oatmeal. Half of the
grains you eat should be whole grains.

8O

   {# 

` {

Vegetables are up next. This is a very colorful


group. Vegetables have a lot of vitamins and
minerals, when you eat a rainbow of vegetable
colors youre sure to get them all!

8O

   {# 

` {

Fruits are another colorful group. You can try to


eat the rainbow with fruits too! Like vegetables,
they have many vitamins your body needs to
stay strong and healthy.

8O

   {# 

` {

The milk group includes cheese and yogurt. All


of these foods have a lot of calcium. Calcium is
important for strong bones.

8O

   {# 

` {

Finally we have the meat and beans group. This


group also includes sh, chicken, eggs and peanut
butter. We get a lot of protein from this group.
We need protein in order to build strong muscles
and have energy.

8O

   {# 

` {

Remember the pyramids lessons and each day


you will fuel your body with everything it needs
to run smoothly. Add some exercise each day
and a good nights sleep. Its the perfect recipe
for a strong, healthy you!

Its morning! Time to get your day started the


right way, with a healthy breakfast. Breakfast is
called the most important meal of the day. If you
make healthy choices in the morning, they can
help fuel your body all day.

This morning, how about some whole grain toast,


an egg, yogurt and fruit juice? This meal has
foods from the grain, meat and beans, milk and
fruit groups. Thats sure to get your day started
in the right direction.

8O

Most days, there is a long wait between meals.


If you have a healthy snack it can keep you
awake and focused until the next meal. A fruit
or vegetable is a great choice for a snack. Some
cheese or crackers with peanut butter is another
healthy option.

8O

Youre already halfway through your day. Youve


eaten great so far. I bet youre feeling good.

What will you have for lunch? A sandwich is an


excellent way to combine many healthy foods.
Start with whole grain bread, add some lean meat,
cheese and pile on some veggies! Tomatoes and
lettuce are perfect for a sandwich. Add a glass of
milk and an apple. Youve built a super lunch.

8O

   {#

School is over and you are headed home. Will


you get a snack before you go out to play? Water
is important for your body too. How about a tall
glass of water and a small bowl of grapes?

8O

Everyone is home and its time for dinner. Todays


menu is sh, a salad and whole grain rolls. Youve
made good healthy choices all day. Its okay to
reward yourself with a small special treat.

A biome is an area with similar climate, plants and


animals. One biome on Earth is the grasslands.
About one fth of the land on Earth is grasslands.
Grasslands are near the equator.

The climate is warm and dry. It can be very windy.


Grasslands have hot summers and cold winters.
The land heats up and cools down quickly.

8O

   {# 

  

Grasslands are wide-open seas of grasses. The


grasses grow tall when there is a lot of rain and
short if there is less rain. Some of the vegetation
includes poison ivy, wild owers, milkweeds,
and other mixed grasses.

8O

   {# 

  

Elephants, giraffe, zebra, lions, and snakes live


in grasslands. In other parts of the world there
are bison, llama, grouse, horses, and weasels.

8O

   {# 

  

There are not many places to hide in the grasslands,


so these animals have to be good runners.

They use their speed to escape from enemies.

Ground squirrels, prairie dogs, lizards, and


snakes can hide underground for safety.

8O

   {# 

  

In the summer when it is hot, res can start.


They start quickly and spread fast because of
the wind. It is important to take care of the
grasslands because much of our food is grown there.

A biome is an area
with similar climate,
plants and animals.
The forest biome
covers about one
third of the land
area. Once there
were many trees, but
people have changed
many of the worlds
forests. There are
three kinds of
forests: tropical,
temperate, and
boreal forests.

8O

   {# 

Tropical rainforests have a wet and a dry season.


They are near the equator, so their temperature
stays about the same all year. The trees and
plants form a thick cover over the land.
It is called a canopy.

8O

   {# 

Rainforests have many kinds of plants and animals.

They can have almost 100


different kinds of trees.

Many different kinds of


birds, small mammals,
insects, and bats also
make their homes in
the rainforest.

8O

   {# 

Another forest is a temperate forest. These forests


are in North America and parts of Asia and Europe.
They have four seasons. There are only four to six
months without frost. Temperate forests have a
canopy but its not as thick as the rain forests.

8O

   {# 

The soil is rich in a temperate forest.


The forest is home to squirrels, wolves, foxes,
skunks, birds, deer, rabbits, mountain lions,
bobcats, and black bears.

8O

   {# 

Boreal forests are the third forest type. They are


the largest land biome. They stretch from North
Asia to Europe and North America. They have
short summers and long, cold, and dry winters.
It snows a lot in these forests and the soil is poor.

8O

   {# 

The canopy is thin in a boreal forest.


Most of the trees are evergreens. Woodpeckers,
weasels, wolves, deer, hares, chipmunks, shrews,
bats, hawks, bears, and moose live in boreal forests.

8O

   {# 

Forests are an
important biome.
They give us lots
of air to breathe
and they are home
to many animals.

Forests disappear
when humans cut
down trees.

Pollution also hurts


the forest biome.

How can you help


save forests?

A biome is an area with similar climate,


plants and animals.
The coldest and driest places on
Earth are the Tundra.
Way up north above the Arctic or
at very high elevation lies the frozen tundra.

8O

   {# 

 

The land in the tundra is frozen for most of the year.


The top layer of soil never thaws out.
It is called permafrost.

8O

   {# 

 

The summers are very short.


During the summer, the sun
does not leave the sky.
In the winter, the temperature can
be 50 degrees below zero.
That is much colder than your refrigerator!

8O

   {# 

 

It is hard for tall plants to grow in the cold but there


are quite a few plants that grow near to the ground.
Lichen is one plant that grows on rocks.
It is moss and algae growing together.
Dwarf willow, small shrubs, and cushion plants
also grow in the icy tundra.

8O

   {# 

 

The animals in the tundra are mostly plant eaters.


The most common animals are reindeer,
caribou, and the lemming.
Some meat eaters that live in the tundra
are rey wolf, artic fox, and polar bear.

8O

   {# 

 

This biome is very sensitive to humans.


The land cannot recover easily when tire
tracks or footprints press it down.
Animals are scared off if many humans invade the land.
It is important to protect the delicate tundra.

Have you ever wondered how paper is made?


Paper is usually made in a paper mill. There
trees and other plant material are ground and
crushed into pulp. The pulp is then used to make
paper. You can also make paper by hand at home
or school. You just need some supplies and help
from an adult.

8O

   {# 



Here are the supplies you will need:

Old paper (cards, newsprint, paper bags, etc.)


Newspaper
Sponge
Wire hanger
Old pair of pantyhose
Flat pan (9 x 13 in.)
2 pieces of felt
Blender
Scissors
Water

8O

   {# 



The rst step is to nd old paper. Rip it into


small pieces. Rip enough paper to ll one cup.

8O

   {# 



Put all the paper pieces into a blender. Add 3


cups of warm water. Blend the paper and water
on high for 10 seconds.

8O

   {# 



The paper and water have become pulp. The pulp


should look like thick soup. Add more water if
the pulp is as thick as oatmeal. Add more paper
if the pulp is as thin as water.

8O

   {# 



Bend the wire hanger into the shape of a rectangle.


Cut off one leg of the pantyhose. Put the hanger
inside the leg. This is the frame for your paper.

8O

   {# 



Lay the frame on the pan. Pour the pulp over the
frame. Wiggle the frame from side to side until
it is evenly covered with pulp.

Slowly lift the frame out of the pan. Hold it over


the pan. Let the extra water drip into the pan.

8O

   {# 



Next place 10 sheets of newspaper on the oor.

Place 2 pieces of felt on top the newspaper.

Put the frame with the pulp facing up on top of


the felt.

You can add owers, leaves, or seeds to the pulp


to decorate your paper.

8O

   {# 



Dab a sponge on top of the pulp to soak up the


extra water. Let the pulp dry on the frame for 24
hours. Then peel the paper from the frame.

8O!

   {# 



Making handmade paper is not just a fun craft.


It is a good way to recycle waste.

You can make paper as a gift for someone you love!

8O

   {#

Camping is fun way to enjoy the great outdoors.


In order to have a great trip, you must be prepared.

8O

   {# 

\{

Where will you camp? Will you be at a national


park or a private campground? Will you stay in a
tent, trailer or motor home?

How long will it take to get there? You will want


to have plenty of daylight to set up your campsite.

What will the weather be like? Check the


weather report to nd out. If it rains, you will
want to be prepared.

What will you do for


fun? Put together the
gear you will need for
your activities. Look
into passes you may
need, such as a parking
pass or shing license.

8O

   {# 

\{

Next, plan a packing list and lay out your


camping gear. You may need:

A waterproof tent
A ground cover or tarp
Firewood, re starters, and matches
Cooking gear
Food (in sealed containers)
Sleeping bag
Pillow
Clothes (dress for the weather)
Extra socks
Sturdy shoes
Flashlight
First-aid kit

8O

   {# 

\{

If you are staying in a tent, you will need a at,


dry area. Look for higher ground to set up your
tent in case it rains. Lay out your ground cover
or tarp. Set up your tent on top of the ground
cover and stake down your tent.

8O

   {# 

\{

Once your site is set up, explore your surroundings.


Find a water source and decide where you will
cook your food. Be sure to have all of your supplies
within reach.

Keep all food in containers until it is time to eat.


Animals get hungry too. If they can smell your
food, they may pay you an unexpected visit!

Always keep a clean campsite. Put all garbage in


dumpsters if they are provided. Or bring your own
plastic bags and take the
garbage home with you.

8O

   {# 

\{

After you set up your campsite, go do what you


came to do! Hike, sh, swim and play. At night,
look up at the stars and listen for wildlife.
It doesnt get any better than this!

8O

   {# 

\{

Youve had an amazing adventure in the great


outdoors. It is important to leave the site exactly
as you found it. Many more people will come to
enjoy the nature and wildlife. As you pack up,
remember to wipe off your gear with a rag.
Pick up any extra food or garbage and take it
with you. Pour water on your re to make sure
it is out. Dont leave anything behind.

She went to the barbers


To buy him a wig;
And when she came back,
He was dancing a jig.

She went to the tailors


To buy him a coat;
And when she came back,
He was riding a goat.

   {# 


  

She went to the cobblers


To buy him some shoes;
And when she came back,
He was reading the news.
