Hey, folks.
This week, Hendrix is asking Mommy all about transportation. All forms of it. It became evident in our conversation that it might be helpful to share the following links to help others do their own digging about the origins of some of the major aspects of modern society, in regard to both the celebration of halloween and transportation. Check these out:
History of Halloween: https://www.history.com/topics/halloween/history-of-halloween
For a high lexile read about Egypt: https://escholarship.org/content/qt3xq6b093/qt3xq6b093.pdf
What exactly is a lexile and why should you know what it is? Check that out here: https://www.scholastic.com/parents/books-and-reading/reading-resources/book-selection-tips/lexile-levels-made-easy.html
