Yesterday was fantastic!!! I only wish that everyday was going to be like it but I know we WILL have melt downs and fits, and I don't want tos, but for now here's what we did on our *fantastic day*...
Riley:
-
multiplication review
-
noun review and made a page for his new notebook (more on that when we have a few more entries)
-
spelling review of all the "hard" words from last semester
-
reading for scouts on Bernoulli and Pascal gave examples of each and *talked about making a paper mache airplane wing* and worked on the Scout Oath
Trevor
Tyler and Calyse
-
read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (we decided to make a tree)
-
played roll the dice and sang 10 little indians
-
matched foamie letters to a letter sheet
Everyone
-
Stencil Penmanship this is an idea I took from Montessori and if anyone who actually does M read this they would have a fit lol... we used shape stencils to make a shape on a paper then used colored pencils to draw horizontal lines within the shape, the lines needed to be as straight and as close together as possible both the older boys did great and both Tyler and Caly just ended up coloring in theirs
-
Katy and the Big Snow- yes I know the snow in Michigan is gone but were pressing on.. we went over the vocab words and did a lot of counting (they started that on their own) talked about counting by 5s the only problem is that I didn't see where it said that in the book I went over and over it and I don't know if were missing a page or what but no where did it talk about 55 horse power or the gears??? then I had Riley figure out how old the book was
-
talked more about Mr. Gallon and what water was in the 3 states of matter
and that's about it I feel good for a first day back and I know it was a lot of review but it's nice to start gently!
