Isaac raced through several days of math this morning. We had been having some tougher math, but these lessons were very easy for him, so I just had him do one page from each new concept.
Then it was time for what he calls inventions project. I had added a few things to his inventions box---washers, nuts, paper clips, aluminum foil, and clothespins. He had lots of fun with the foil and went up and got more. He made me an apple for my desk, a ring and a bracelet.
He worked on that until it was time for our home school group. There he had music, PE, and art. He said he had a great time. I helped with the preschoolers today. I had fun too.
After lunch we were off to a nearby university to explore their Life Science building. We saw live snakes, a monitor, lots of fresh and salt water fish, a tree frog, a tarantula, and lots of taxidermy of local wildlife and birds. It was really cool. Isaac had me take his picture with several different things, but he didn't want the labels, sides of the tank, etc, to show, he wanted it to look like he was really right with that animal. Cute.
Then we set off to the library in that town. It is much bigger than our and has a huge, compared to ours, children's department. Isaac had fun exploring there.
Well, that was our Friday adventure. I asked Isaac if he enjoyed school, and he smiled a great big smile. |
