4th Week in Review

Posted in The School Room

 

Well I had this all typed out then my pc froze and I lost it all.    So I'll try again (sigh).

We were really busy this week with renovations.  But despite dh and I both being a bit sick we still got our lessons done.

Lets see...In math we finished lesson 2 in Alpha and dd1 had a perfect test.  Lesson 2 was on counting and writing to 20. 

Spelling this week dd1 did her first crossword puzzle and the unit review/test.  I'm very happy with Spelling workout so far.

In her grammar we reviewed the Caterpillar poem and the definition of a noun. 

We're still learning about mammals and what makes them different.  We've been especially focusing on the largest, heaviest and loudest mammals.

DD is really enjoying learning about Egypt.  This week we made the Egyptian crown from SOTW activity guide.  Next time we do that we will use normal paper and NOT the wax paper suggested.  It was very hard to work with, to slippery. Oh and we made some for her toys to.

We also wrapped up our FAIR Story About Ping lesson.  We took a trip to the park for a nature walk and fed the ducks/geese rice cakes.  Surprisingly they liked them better then bread or cracked corn!

We also did an art lesson on drawing reflections and movement in water.  We learned about why things float.  We used the chart from Homeschool Share in the Ping section.  It was a hit!  The girls had a great time.

We learned about Egypt last year... and my son is also using Spelling Workout. So how did the artwork of reflections come out? You posted photos of dropping things in water but none of the art itself... unless I missed something?

Anyway... TAG YOU'RE IT!
Come to my blog to see the rules of the tag.
