1st Grade, Rome to Reformation Week 28: India/Columbus, Space rocks, Lost coin/son, Blind man, and Zacchaeus

BIBLE

We memorized Philippians 2:5-11 and did some review of verses

We started reading the book of 1 John.

For Lil Sis, we read about Lost coin/son, Blind man, and Zacchaeus

It was interesting because I lost my keys this week and after a LONG search, I found the keys and I had to talk to Lil Sis about the story she read.

HISTORY

We learnt about India and Columbus.

We did the map of Columbus' journey and watched a fun video of it.

LANGUAGE

The older kids continued on Rod and Staff English.

Lil Sis worked on her bible story reading and bible notebook.

The older two did a review for 康軒一下 for Mandarin Chinese and Lil Sis did practice on bopomofo

We learnt two more Latin words "cursum" and "verto" this week.

MATH

We continued to practice Math.

SCIENCE

We learnt about the space rocks and it really was quite fascinating.

These summary pages from LearningPage was real helpful.

ART

We observed the Mona Lisa's drawing, read some books about Leonardo Da Vinci and talked about the drawing.

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!
