For this week's lesson, we're going to design and build a blanket fort! Blanket forts provide children of many ages with a
fun and engaging way to use their imaginations and creative problem-solving skills. They may also provide younger children with a quiet place to be alone and relax or deescalate and self-regulate their emotions.
1. Identify the problem and ask questions. How can I build a blanket fort? What materials do I need to build a blanket fort? What can I do in or how can I use a blanket fort?
2. Brainstorm ideas which might answer these questions.
3. Make designs! Draw pictures of how you would like your blanket fort to look and function.
4. Build your blanket fort based upon your design! See below for tips and directions.
5. After you've completed your fort, don't forget to share your results and show off your hard work!

Directions: Read about the United States below. Then, help your student use the map below
to answer some questions.
North America: The Unites States
The United States is part of
North America, along with
Canada, Mexico, and Central
America. The United States has
fifty states.
The United States is a country
with its own government and
laws. The government for the
United States is in the capital
city, Washington, D.C. Members
of the government meet in the Capitol Building. The president lives in the
White House, which is also in Washington, D.C.
If you were to travel across the United
States, you would see many different
kinds of landscapes. For example,
most New England states have
beautiful coastlines. Some New
England states have mountains and
lakes. The United States has many
large cities, such as New York City,
where millions of people live.
This year in first grade students have been learning about Communities and
Cultures. In these at home learning opportunities you can continue this
exploration. Some information may be review and some may be new. Feel free to
use any resources you have (such as the internet or books) to explore the topics
more each week. Each week will connect to the last as much as possible.

If you traveled to the southern part of the
United States, you would find that it is hotter
there than in the North. People like to vacation
in Florida, a state that is a long peninsula.
The Midwest has cornfields and dairy
farms. If you visited the Great Plains,
you would see that there are miles
and miles of flat land where wheat is
grown. The Rocky Mountain region
has—you guessed it—tall mountains
that stretch across a large part of
North America. The Southwest has
canyons and deserts, and the West
Coast has an awesome coastline.
To get to Alaska you would have to
drive or fly across Canada. In terms
of size, Alaska is the largest U.S.
state. The state of Hawaii is made up of tropical islands two thousand
miles away from California, in the Pacific Ocean. How might you get to
Hawaii?
1. Which continent is the United States a part of?
2. Describe the different types of landscapes in the United States.
3. Write the name of the country and state you live in.
