We had lots of fun in "Canada" for ECC
Bible




 Copywork really helps in penmanship.


Love how she looks at life. This is a note she wrote to her little sis.


Did the Greek Alphabet sheet. She loved it.






Day 1: light
Day 2: Sky


We started reading the Bible Reader and the bible notebook (doing my own this year).

Math



Big sis has been very good in Math since K, these addition/subtraction are almost revision for her but it is good for her hone in her skills, I feel.

Started the coin part of the daily calendar. She really enjoys that.



More addition practice

 She sure doesn't do Math the conventional way. I have NO IDEA what she is chanting. But she's supposed to roll dice and add, color the right number square  

Language



Learnt or, ir, er ur (and also "or" sounding like "er"), aw/al and other letters that make the short vowel u sound, and also the igh, the y (for long vowel i)

She wrote a letter to her best friend. I think she did a wonderful job!!

Learnt the Chinese soundsㄞ and made more revision worksheets


Science
Learnt about the rivers, beach and waves.
The little one did the Beach preschool pack.

And it was fun that we went to the beach couple weeks back and we talked about the waves and the beach.

Also did many projects with ECC.

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 .

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!
