Morning Doo

It's Fall! Yes, much too cold for morning dew.
Student began her with morning fishy doo!
She had a smile about the whole project, as now she
is a first grader with responsibilities, and a hunger for such duties.

In her robe, before her beauty bath, Student cleaned Alezandra's fish bowl and prepared her pet for life in the penthouse, upstairs in Student's room, that is!

With her chart and pen at her bedside, Student will keep track of the time and day she feeds her pet. She will place a sticker at the end of each week she fully completes the feeding task. Funny how our manual stressed the point of a fair system to share this charting/feeding duty...no problems there! Homeschool doesn't however breed selfishess, as Student shares most everything else with Toddler and soon-to-grow Mascot!

With sun and temps in the 50's, God granted the gift of Activity today! We walked to the neighborhood park and enjoyed our Math while soaking up the vitamin D. Playtime at the Evos Park is always an energy-buster for Toddler. However, today, the green space seemed to be most popular. Maybe their darting around will turn them into another Ryan Hall, running for God and representing our country!

Finishing up 2 make-up tests in Math, Student did great.
We had to laugh at ourselves taking turns being the teacher and quizzing eachother:
"Stand ifI say a month, sit if I say a day of the week!"
Student beat Teacher on this one!

Student also got her fill in math by switch-counting. She would begin counting by 5s and switch to 1s when directed. What a girl! Thanks, God!

Student:I had fun doing school in my room!
I have a fishy in my room! And her name is Alezandra.My sentence in cursive today was:
Do you like my room?
