Campbell reads a passage from the book that he read, Surviving the Applewhites by Stephanie S. Tolan. Click to hear him read.

My book is about a foster home but there is something weird about the foster home because of this one guy Ed. He is very strange. He has 6 piercings in one ear. The main character is Ed. This is a strange book. I don’t recommend it because it is confusing and interesting. It got a medal, so good luck.

Campbell Surviving the Applewhites

Today a couple of tomatospere plants have grown a bit. D plants are green and M plants are yellow. Most of our class thinks that M is the treated plant because tomatos are green when they start off growing and these ones are yellow.                                                               

The first picture is a plant from the D planter. The second picture are the two D planters and the third picture are the two M planters.

We were treated with bannock today from Campbell. He is studying the Inuit and found a recipe for this bread that the Inuit people eat. It was very kind of him to make it and bring it in to share with the class. Campbell told us about how bannock is suited to the lifestyle that the Inuit hunters lived because it can be made fairly quickly, keeps for a long time and travels well. We had a discussion about when the Inuit would have started to make bannock and decided that it was probably after trade had been established between them and southern tribes since flour would not have been easy to find in the north. Thanks again, Campbell.
