Obviously this was the N week. We made nests and colored nests. we sequenced birds making nests and laying eggs and the baby birds growing up. We made nests with the mud and then took yarn and glued them to paper to make nests.
Ry is doing better with time but her being distracted is going to be issues but we will work with it. Emma is just like her dad, she is exceptionally smart. I cant WAIT to get a printer and start printing out these other activities to take up her time. I mean lap book mania here. I am hoping.
Next week we are reviewing and I think I have decided to do it every 5 weeks. We took a test on friday. They had to write their alphabet letters both capital and lower case. and numbers 1-5. Now, i have the letters on our white board to help them understand how to write them correctly. Ry, looking at that, made a 100. Emma missed 12 because she was just speeding through and not paying attention. It was so hard not to correct her and when she asked me if it looked right i asked her what she thought and she would either erase it or keep going. So she made an 80 or so. OH Funny thing. She went to do her numbers and instead of writing her numbers what did she do?? EX. 1. | 2.|| 3.||| etc. to get the All the way to 5. We put the tests on the fridge along with their paitings from art class.
Any way. Next week is review/make up week. We will do a few more things with the apples. And a few more things with the Leaves. We will go and look up more stuff for the sun and the moon and really focus on writing those letters. (S,M,L,A,N). Week 6 starts the in depth blending of phonics so we are going to just work on review this week before we jump in head first. Love homeschooling. No one is left behind, we review. We get it in our skulls and then we go on when they are ready and have got it down instead of pushing.
Thats the update for the week.
