We finished Twice Freed.





LANGUAGE
The older kids continued on Rod and Staff English.

Lil Sis worked on her phonics, bible books and bible notebook


The older two finished up Lesson 6 åº·è»’一下 for Mandarin Chinese


We learnt two more Latin words "nominis. nomen" and "pro" this week. 
We did Spelling Power.



MATH
Lil Sis started Singapore Math 1B and she was so excited!


SCIENCE


We learnt about the circulatory system and had a fun week learning about the heart.
It took Mommy a while but finally understood about the system

The kids had a BLAST feeling their pulse and tracking their heartbeat.

The model of the heart

We placed the heart into our model (not easy to see)




These videos were just wonderful in teaching about the circulatory system.


ART


We learnt about tones and how to mix the colors. It was fun!

Then we mixed up the secondary and tertiary colors and painted "harmony"

Online Resources: Sesame Street Games

I love the Sesame Street Games ...I think they are the best for preschoolers. They teach important concepts, at the same time, making computer skills real easy. For eg, there is no "click and drag"...that's hard for them...there's "click" "move" "click". There are some games Ian really likes...(click on photo for the games) That's the Wheels on the Bus song (you press the keys foe interactive movements) Patterns. Seasons. Fun for the kids. Walking the dogs...numbers. This is alltime favorite. First you make a pitcher of lemonade. Then depending on how many monsters come, you click however many cups. I love it!

Science 2015/2016: Human Body Recap

We really had fun learning about the Human Body this year. I thought it would be meaningful to consolidate our learning. We enjoyed the Body Book more than I thought we would. I did do most of the cutting though. We also enjoyed the different videos we watched and the experiments. I think this is the most successful science year yet. The five senses Tongue the Ear The Skin The Eye Skeleton Joints Long Bone Tooth Brains Spinal Cord Digestive System Stomach The Lungs The Heart The Urinary System The Muscle Look through all our experiments and videos here .
