Lesson 1
World Book Kids
For my animal I chose the Rag Doll Kitten, because I have
always wanted one. There is no
information or pictures posted in the World Book Kids regarding a Rag Doll
Kitten.

The Rag Doll Kitten can become a large cat that gets its
name from its limpness. When you pick
it up, it flops over like a ragdoll. I chose this picture because its fur and
markings are similar to a Birman cat.
For my country I chose Nepal. I have good friends from church who are missionaries in
Nepal. I like to follow their ministry
and with the civil war that was happening in Nepal, I would have enjoyed using
the Maps Section and the Special Reports section. The Encyclopedia Articles will also give me a better insight into
their daily lives, so I can pass along information to other individuals in
church as to how they cope with a different, changing culture.
I am a former homeschool mom, and know several homeschool
moms. Many homeschoolers wish to learn
a second language, and this would be a perfect way for students to hear the
proper pronunciation of the word.
I've always loved the Ragdoll cat. They are beautiful. (I used to do all my school reports on cats)
ReplyDeleteYou've made some great discoveries in World Book--as you noted, the ragdoll isn't in World Book Kids but it is mentioned in World Book Student. Many times one needs to look in World Book Student to locate specific info such as this.
Great application for your country information.
Wonderful discoveries this week!!
Thanks for your post,
