2021-2022 Week 11

HISTORY

We learnt about Peter the Great and we did an IEW paragraph on him.



We also learnt about the Ottoman Turks


And India. We did a drawing of Taj Mahal and learnt about symmetry but drawing the reflection.

We finished Amos Fortune.


These were notebook pages Baby Sis caught up with for Botany

We played some review games for Chinese.

We also tried to do some experiments on dew point but failed.


PREPPER


I got the Richard Scarry Book for Wee Bro. This is one of our FAVORITE preschooler books.

9th GRADE
Big Sis learnt about Western Europe (+ Ireland that she didn't finish last week) So she made shepherd's pie (she thinks it's more like shepherd's stew) and we got Irish Cream soda from Lidl (meh)

OTHER THINGS
Baby Sis finished her antibiotics (for some lymph node infection) yay!

In a whirlwind we managed to get my mom to come visit us from the other side of the globe. So exciting!!
We were going to vacation at Cape Cod for a week, but the nor'easter blew out our power on day 2, so we came home early. =(

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 .
