Dollygirl's Grade Seven: Week Six, Stretched Out

We are almost halfway through the fall term, ready to begin Week Six (of twelve).  When I was planning out the year, I noticed that, over the next two weeks, we have a public-school teacher's day (which we usually take off), a holiday for Thanksgiving, and another day when I won't be here to do school (I'll post about that later).  It was easier to say "let's do Week Six over two weeks" than to try to stick to the usual schedule.

So this is the plan for this week...Week Six, Part One.
