We had a busy week in science. We started our new unit, which is on Energy. The kids went on an energy hunt:
The twins had some extra work defining energy terms and reporting back to each other.
Finally, we had some fun making atoms and molecules with different colored playdough and toothpicks. I think they really enjoyed this even though I cringed to see the colors mixed--ha!
We completed our read aloud, Half Magic, and the kids could either draw what would happen to their wish if they had the half magic token or they could make a correct wish. In order of the pictures, Nathan wished to be in Hawaii so half of him made it there. The people around him are throwing up to see half his body. Haha!
Below that is Samuel's picture. He wished to be a pig so half of him is a pig. His misspelling of 'what' was intentional (texting language).
Hunter wished to be in the desert so half of him is there. Lily wished for the Twilight movies and books, only twice the amount, so she received one copy of all the movies and books. :)
On Wednesday, we went to Bloomsbury Farm. I didn't get a lot of pictures. It was very windy and muddy! We had fun and I even tried out the haunted house!
Making a coat of arms in history:
We had a couple half days because of a dr appt and a field trip. This upcoming week also has a couple half days but I've planned a full load! Halloween is our first scheduled day off so we're trying to go strong until then!
