2022-2023 Week 8-9

 These were hard weeks. Because the family was down with some flu.

But these are what we did, and in between we even got a getaway to upstate!


HISTORY

We went on to talk about Canada, France, and Prussia. Also we started talking about industrialization and modernization. In the states, as well as in other parts of the world.

This is how we do the Story of the World.
1st the girls listened to the chapter, then we do the outline and maps together. Lastly I made google quizzes (using the review questions) for them.

This was a fun worksheet.



We played the changing rules game.



We did a lapbook component on the Transcontinental Railroad. It was fun and the girls wrote the paragraph after I gave them some questions to research, then we edit using IEW methods.

SCIENCE
Covalent bond. Real fun.





Baby Sis learnt about crystals, so we got this Crystal Excavation set for her. It was great fun!

Lil Sis is doing really well with her co-op on Biology.

KINDERGARTEN

We learnt about A-a Apples!


Apple tasting chart! Sad choices of apples this year!


When doing patterns, he used it to show the chord C. hahaha...



He made applesauce with me!



Linking letters together (he is actually doing it on his own already)


Special Apple Pie!!

Our 100 Chart!

Always fun to get to no "ones"




Apple printing



We also did some "fall" things to go with the unit. This came in time for the Fall Fest at church and these became decor!



Grasshopper and the ants since we ar etalking about the fall.
Fun Books on Apples (and more)

Big Sis made his elevator cookies and totally made his day.

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!
