Thanksgiving day at our house

We did many things about Norway with ECC

Bible

We continued on the Bible Reader and Notebook. The girls REALLY enjoyed it.

I found an interesting way to get really beautiful pictures for the notebook. Bought books from Barefoot once and they sent me a catalog, too pretty to throw. So I kept it

And they really do have some great pictures for our notebook!

Added the rainbow the next day.

Making magic stars

Notebook: A son for Abraham

Math

This activity from the CBOM was very fun!

Measuring is great fun. Using string, using the ruler...

Sometimes tally marks can look very different in a kid's eyes: fish bones!

I made one of the inch worm game in CBOM into a file folder game

We didn't do a lot of Animal Patterns this year, just because Big Sis had done them a lot in the holidays. But thy like to make their own pictures. =)

Graphs

Science

Planets worksheets for the preK and 1st grade.

Learning about Rainbows, so we did this rainbow, also incorporating measuring.

Arts

Rosemaling with ECC

Pine tree with ECC

Norway paper doll with ECC

And we did a lot of fun stuff for Thanksgiving

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 .
