We just finished reading The Adirondack Kids; Book 1. For our final project we made GORP (granola, oats, raisins and peanuts). We also added some M&M's for a little kick. We plan to make "Save the Loons" posters and present our GORP and posters next week for the whole class.
The kids had a blast making it and loved eating some M&M's even more at the end!
Check out the book The Adirondack Kids, it is a great 4th grade book if you enjoy the outdoors and it is even set in New York State.
