[An] impressive history of timekeeping. "Horn Book" ""Bruce Koscielniak, in this Common Core text exemplar, tells the intriguing story of the many years spent tinkering and inventing to perfect the art of telling time. When time itself was undefined, no one knew the difference between a minute, an hour, and a day. Then people started creating tools to measure time. First they used the sun, the moon, and the water, but soon after people began using their knowledge about the natural world to build clocks and to create calendars made up of months and years. Centuries later, we have clocks and calendars all around us! This title has been selected as a Common Core Text Exemplar (Grades 4-5, Informational Texts)"

Dear Journal,I won first place in the surfing contest this morning! Besides winning a gold medal and trophy, I also received a $100 Visa gift card! I am truly excited and proud! On a different note, I have decided to tell Adam how I feel about him. Maybe it's because of my win or my upcoming eighteenth birthday, but I have been given the confidence to do what I have been afraid to do all summer. Whatever it is, I am thankful for it. After all, it is important to me that Adam knows how I feel.-Ariel
