Two Years in a Tree


We're starting to read a new story this week. It's a true story about Julia Hill, who lived up in a redwood tree in Humboldt County for two years. During your computer lab time today, we're going to learn how to search for more information about the story and practice commenting on what you find. While you're searching for information, try to find the answers to these questions.

Where was Julia Hill born?

What's her middle name?

Who is Luna?

What did Julia do after she saved the tree?
