Happy Cabbage Night

It has many names, but around upstate New York and Vermont the night before Halloween was called Cabbage Night. A  night during which young people play pranks and do mischief in their neighborhoods. From what I've been told, it's most popular in pockets where Irish and Scottish immigration was common — which means, as most of these immigrants would be found in the Northeast, that this night was far more common here than it would be in the South or Midwest.

  • Reading for 20 minutes and/or continue working on your Hatchet/Peak/Holes book work (including anything in your packet.)

Look them over a little each night (you have time to review each of the four lessons between now and the test). Use the study guide packet to help you further understand the material. A helpful hint: try and teach the content of the lessons to a sibling or parent. This will help you see just how well you undertand the material, and how well you remember the important details!
