Bible
We memorized the NT books.
And we played a game. I distributed the cards evenly among the girls. They take turns putting down cards in the right place.
History
We had an accidental Roman meal. We moved some things around in the house and decided to eat at the coffee table one morning. So we thought that was like a Roman meal, except, they didn't have potatoes then.
We learnt about the different entertainment the Romans had and watched some videos on the colosseum, circus maximus, etc.
We did a colosseum page.
Love the ideas of the acetate/duralar pages Project Passport has.
And we learnt about different jobs in Rome.
Roman Roads
We learnt about the Roman Road and watched some videos on it.
We also made a Roman Road snack. Super yummy!
Crushed rocks. (curshed oreos)
Cement with rocks (pudding with marshmallows)
Cement with sand (no sand, just sweetened whipped cream)
Stone slabs (graham crackers
This was another fun project of Project Passport for Roman roads.
We learnt about coins and taxes in Rome. This was such a fun project!
The girls designed their own coins. They are so creative
I simply love these!
These are the Roman coins. And on a side note, Big Sis made a coin just for Wee Bro today. Since he was fussy and the only way he would calm down is to "do school" with us. Big Sis would let him be the "glue-person" for her project. And she gave him the special coin. SUCH sweetness.
We learnt about the Twelve Tables (law in Rome)
We had another test on the Latin root words
Science
We learnt about the five senses and the eye this week.
And we learnt about blind spots.
Others
We continued on Spelling Power, Chinese, Math, and English.
Read-aloud
We started Galen a little earlier, because we will learn about medicine soon. Also our Bronze Bow e-book reached expiration and now it's still on reserve. It is rather frustrating to not be able to keep up with the story, but Galen is a lot easier to read and understand.
Art
We drew a chariot from Draw and Write History.
8th Grade
Big Sis did another interesting experiment for Biology this week, measuring starch content.
Baby Sis (7 years old) and Lil Sis (10 years old) made meals on different weeks. I'm so proud of them and how they are so independent in planning their meals, making them, and cleaning up!
