I haven't posted for a few days, but we have continued in our Creation unit. We have read The Great Dinosaur Mystery, Dinosaurs of Eden, D is for Dinosaur, to name a few.
Isaac has progressed through math, advanced to typing 8 wpm, and reviewed cursive writing.
He has done several lessons from the Calvary Chapel website, and we have watched several Kent Hovind videos.
We had a home school open house and some of Isaac's grandparents got to see our home school room and our bulletin board and Isaac's current projects. He was quite excited about that. He had me serve chocolate chip cookies, and he told me to have plenty because his oldest brother, Dustin, would probably eat a lot of them. :)
One day we made velociraptor claws out of breadstick dough for our lunch.
Isaac made a book of Creation Facts. He really enjoyed doing that. Today we talked about the first families of the Bible. Then Isaac made a family tree of our family.
Tomorrow we meet with our homeschool group for PE, art and music. We will have Bible and math before we go, but that will be it for school at home that day.
After the group, we will go to a nearby college to the Biology building and see all the live animals on display, and we will probably check out the library there because they have a great kids section.
Some great books we have read during personal reading are: Three Samurai Cats, Get Well Good Knight, The Snowy Day, and Henry Hikes to Fitchburg. We are currently working on the chapter book The Mouse and the Motorcycle.
We went for a walk in the woods today. We wrote down everything we saw, heard, smelled, and touched, and how we felt. Actually Isaac dictated and I wrote. He wants to make it into a book. We brought home a catepillar to live in his bug habitat.
See you later! |
