$80.00Price
*Complete kit!!* With a fun poster, students learn to “Say Yes to Life” at the beginning of Unit 1. They learn about the early pioneers who explored the frontier, and realize that there are still frontiers to explore, including those within themselves. The continuing story, “The Patch” is about two brothers, Darien and Marshall, who are a family until their parents’ divorce. The brothers live separately from each other as each lives with the other parent. During holidays, they are reunited. Darien idolizes Marshall, until he comes to his father’s house for the first Thanksgiving. He realizes then that Marshall has changed; he smokes cigarettes now and is no longer nice to him. Darien takes his jacket and tears off a patch he had made to look like one on his brother's letterman jacket. This ongoing story throughout the Grade 4 curriculum shows how the brothers cope with their challenging situations and come to work together to set goals and achieve them.
