Teacher wonders about how by the book
the Season answers must be in today's Math test.
Confusing a Midwestern child on the seasons is no trick,
it's the understanding that is the true challenge.
Student was asked in what month the following activities might occur, and her answers follow.
Build a sandcastle?
Remembering Toddler's hotter than hot birthday parties...she answered: July
Roll a snowman?
Easy, fresh in her mind...she answered: December
Fly a kite?
This was the kicker, so after her January answer we discussed windy Spring roaring in like a lion...and forever continuing to blow!
To finish Math today, Student had speed drills. The biggest obstacle during this exercise, was keeping her attention! She knows that her language of love is time, but distinguishing it's needed separation from speed drills is still to come.
Student read to the Mascot some of her Fancy Nancy books from Christmas.
This same book was Toddler's choice for naptime reading. I think they have camping fever, as the title of this Nancy book was: Poison Ivy Expert.
Computer time seems to be quite the popular affair, lately. Auntie Ang connected the kiddos to ReallyWooly and we all have fun taking part in their online live events. Toddler is building robots a lot lately, too. Student has enjoyed decorating Holly Hobby's house.
Spelling words were recorded on a stray piece of cardboard recycling in the shape of a hexagon. Teacher is delighted to keep Spelling morale up with such FREE supplies!
The I CAN can was added to:
Student wrote that she can do all 3 of these:
sing
sew
catch
History opened Teacher's eyes when reading skipped from Psalms to the New Testament...and we were so proud to attempt the Bible in a year. Student has really connected to the footnotes and maps, but we'll have to STOP claiming to be reading the complete Word and finish what we started with curriculum override for next year!
Thanks to God for the blessings of having Principal at the Homeschool during the day! They went to some local trails for Activity today.
Meanwhile, Teacher and Mascot cleaned and played! Praise to the Lord for His new mercys every morning! Resting on this promise, the Homeschool closes for the day.
