Packy turned TWO this past Saturday!! Happy birthday!!!! Here she is coloring our rainbow pictures:
Both girls:
Bible - Squeak informed me that she missed the Rod & Staff Bible Stories and Coloring so I am going to start that back up with the girls. This past week, we've been reading the events leading up to Jesus' betrayal and arrest. Math - Squeak worked about 17 exercises in the Singapore 1b workbook this past week. She was LOVING it:
This week, we are going to switch to Horizons 1 - we are starting the second book.
Science - In the beginning of the week, we completed our "seed project". Squeak's hypothesis was correct and peat pot #1 grew and peat pots #2 and #3 did not. She knew it would grow because it had all the elements it needed. Squeak is recording her findings in her Nature Diary:
We began the Chemistry portion of Sonlight Science K. We talked about atoms and molecules and the materials that they are made out of. We also worked several pages in Singapore Science. Squeak painted hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms and we bonded them into water molecules!
Packy also painted her own atoms:
Other - We finished Pony Pals #1 and began The Magic School Bus #6. The girls also finger painted and made some fun foam crafts.
Sounds like a great week. What cute kids!
ReplyDeleteI like your blog a lot. Even though I'm not homeschooling our kids, this gives me lots of inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI think Squeak is way ahead of many firstgraders especially in math and science. In school they just waste so much time to solving conflicts and talking. We have seen it very clear how little our son accomplishes in school compared to what he does in a way shorter time at home when he is doing homework.
I wish I could homeschool too but I don't know Hebrew well enough :/
Your kids are cute - as always!!

I love the water molecules the girls made. Squeak keeps right on going doesn't she. So impressed by her accomplishments.
