2020-2021 Rome to Reformation Week 13

Last Saturday we celebrated Baby Sis' 8th birthday. I cannot believe she is already eight.

Bible/History

We continued the journey of Luke this week and we memorized 1 Cor 12:2

For History, we are learning the origins of Islam.

We also used this site to listen to some testimonies and prayed for them.

We made a notebook page and a lapbook component

Science

We learnt about the digestive system this week. It was really fun to put more things on our model!

Just the digestive system (without the liver and pancreases)

Large intestines behind the small intestines

stomach wall and vili

Adding onto the model!

We added the pancreas

And the liver

The girls did a review

We did a peristalsis experiment.

And some worksheets regarding nutrition

We also talked about the teeth and dental health. Finally they did a test on the digestive system.

8th Grade

Big Sis decided she is going to make the Bruce Bogtrotter cake (Roald Dahl's Matilda)

It turned out like a soft brownie. Super nice. We decided no frosting is needed.

She also aced a Biology exam (4 units) and mid chapter Algebra quiz.

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 .
