This week went so fast that it was a blur. I have no idea why it felt that way but at least it didn't drag on. We did some painting this week. The 2 younger ones did regular painting and the 2 older ones worked under the table--it was an attempt at painting in a similar fashion as Michelangelo when he worked on the Sistine Chapel. It was really interesting to learn more about this artist--and the kids were thrilled because it was the same name as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Ha!
We studied Argentina this week and our Little Passports package gave us a dinosaur fossil to uncover. Apparently, many dinosaur fossils are discovered in Argentina--interesting, huh? Hunter and Lily didn't mind taking turns but I finally broke it apart by hand since it was getting tiresome. Definitely a fun activity, though!
Samuel learned about subtraction this week. I found this idea somewhere on the internet but I can't retrace my steps to find it. Anyway, we had a shipwreck with Samuel's Webkinz and we practiced booting some of them off the ship to make subtraction problems. He played with this for quite awhile!
Moving on to March!!
