Student loves to begin her day with such numbers and logic.
We compared and contrasted inches, feet & yards. Not locating our yard stick, we pulled out the roller-cutting mat and measured many Homeschool findings:
fabric flower
scrap fabric
Toddler's robot
books
chairs
Student did well deciding which tool to use in each case.
Her new fav game, is virtual quilting! She had the idea for looking up such a game,
and WOW if we didn't locate an awesome one!
This parallels with her symmetry learning in Math just grandly!
And as though we didn't already testify to God's perfect timing,
Gramma Es Tu brought some applique´ blocks in the boxes of fabric she gifted us this week!
This pretty block offered Student the opportunity to use yarn, pink of course, and identify all the lines of symmetry. Thanks, Gramma Es Tu.
What about that solo recital coming up? Student continues practice, and is learning some music symbols in the meantime. Mrs. S also worked on clapping familiar rhythms from Twinkle. Student was called a "Good listener!" several times throughout their game. She truly treasures their lesson time.
Student baked, mixing and measuring all-by-herself, while Mascot nursed. None other than: banana-chocolate chip muffins. Her life skills were working quite well on their own, before Teacher rushed the process and added 1 cup too much flour! Forgive me, bowing out is hard to do! As an adult with a constant eye on the clock, we can be reminded of life's simple beauty from above when observing the time schedule of a child.
Well, Student and Teacher gifted a half dozen to Mrs. S and her family for her husband's birthday. HAPPY BDAY MR.S!
Digging out the sculpty from the craft cabinet today, Student and Toddler began their Map activity in Geography. Flattening, texturizing, and cutting 2 continents, Student quickly asked to finish the project tomorrow!
"This clay is too hard. I can't mash it...
Ok, here's Australia and South America, and half of Antarctica. Is that all for today?"
Cursive came and went in the form of the 12 months. Student wrote the names of the months each on a flashcard, and mixed them up. She enjoyed singing her months-of-the-year song and placing them in order. Now, to find a song about the hours of the day!
