We're really having fun with this book so far...and it's only the first day!
We started with lesson 11 in Leading Little Ones To God, God Is Holy. We learned about Isaiah and his vision of the seraphim.
We read How To Make An Apple Pie and See The World by Marjorie Priceman for the first time. After reading it, we went page by page and discussed what was happening. I like to do this with each new book so that I know he understands what the book is about.
For Language Arts today, we took a look at the book and discussed how the author used humor to make it more interesting. We then tied our Art lesson into this by looking at the illustrations and pointing out the funny things she included to add humor to the pages. We looked especially at the pie-eating scene at the end, there were many humorous elements on that page.
Our Bible application for today was "the fruits of the spirit" from Galatians 5:22-23. We discussed each "fruit" in detail, giving examples of how we could exemplify each one.
For Penmanship, DS wrote each of "the fruits of the spirit". He did a real nice job. He's learning to take his time and use correct placement of the letters.
For Social Studies we had a Geography lesson. We reviewed France (studied during Madeline) and then found Italy on the map. I told DS that they are both in Europe, not very far from one another. Then, we made a map of Italy and compared it to the map of France. I asked DS what was different and he thought it was neat that they were so similar and could both be called a "tricolor".
We did Saxon K for math and for reading practice, DS read out of Friends Old And New, our Dick and Jane reader. For read-aloud, I am still reading Charlie And The Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl.
