It’s February 4. 
Today is “Ice Cream for Breakfast Day.”  Can you invent an ice cream flavor that would be appropriate for breakfast?

Trivial Fact of the Day:  It takes 12 lbs. of milk to make one gallon of ice cream.

Interesting Quote of the Day:  “I doubt whether the world holds for anyone a more soul-stirring surprise than the first adventure with ice-cream.”   --Heywood Broun (American journalist)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  repast (noun) – this fancy synonym can be used in place of the word meal, as in breakfast or dinner.  Since you probably didn’t have ice cream for this morning’s repast, what did you have? 

Thursday!!

Today we are going to discuss oil distribution and analyze a political cartoon. Then we are going to read Chapter 17 lesson 2 and report out what we learned. We need to make it a good day.
