Adventures with an Only Child

Weekly Learning Notes

Posted in Kindergarten

This was a light week because I spent two days out of town for a conference and the other days I spent trying to get my parents' house ready for them to come home after being gone for 3 weeks.  Normally this would not be a time-consuming effort, but of course on Sunday, a wind storm caused by Ike downed trees and caused massive power outages. This Sunday newspaper said 52,000 customers were still without power.  Anyway, I had to get a landscaper to come and get a HUGE limb cleaned up, and I had to empty their freezer and throw away a lot of food. Their power came back on Wednesday.


Good news - S is liking school a little better.  So here are our notes for the week:


Bible

  • “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son that whoever believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.”  John 3:16
  • “And God said, “Let there be light” and there was light.” Genesis 1:3

Music

  • Home on the Range

Reading

  • Berenstain Bears and the Baby Chipmunk

Literature

  • Finished Surprise Island by Gertrude Chandler Warner
  • Read four stories in James Herriot’s Treasury for Children

History

  • Power outage prompted discussion of how people lived before electricity.

Art

  • Coloring with Nana - we have just begun spending each Thursday morning with Nana and PopPop (my in-laws)
