2021-2022 Week 22

 We moved away from the American Revolution and go on to 1850.

We are using Homeschool in the Woods Early19th Century Pack and other readings suggested by MFW Exploration to 1850, trying to piece them by time line.

At the same time, we will do 2 to 3 states research every week, and 1 to 2 presidents every week. The plan is to finish 25 states this year, and 12 presidents.

President Study:


We read from these books and also watched a video for every president.

HISTORY
We talked about James Cook, and also the French Revolution in terms of chronological importance.
The girls listened to Story of the World and did google quizzes I made for them.

State Study:
We studied New Jersey, Georgia, and Connecticut this week.


This is an example.
We made NJ Italian subs

And this is a read aloud we are doing these two weeks, based on Georgia, and it's very interesting!


SCIENCE:






These are Lil' Sis' worksheets this week. We are learning about mammals.

9th GRADE

She learnt about the Middle East last week, so the parents had to "sacrifice" and ate some delicious Lebanese food. Shawarma and falafel. All for the sake of education.

Big Sis made the most delicious Chicken Tikka Masala from scratch. So proud of her.

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!
