Christmas Break

Christmas break was full of presents, family activities and rest. Nathan also had his birthday!! We are preparing for back to school on Wednesday this upcoming week.

 

Week 17

 We had 2 days of school this week to finish things up for Christmas break! They had a science lab with Brian before they were free! On to enjoying the holidays !!

Week 16

Nathan said he wants pictures of his unenthused face in all his school pictures.  Haha!  Anyway, we had a science lab this week but I wasn’t able to take pictures of the process so this is a picture of the finished product.  It’s a soft robot grabber.  

The boys finished their art projects this week.  Wintery trees with a wintery background.

We had a very full load of work this week as we finish things for Christmas break.  2 more days of school to wrap up units and papers and books!!  Then, the boys will start their focus on a clean room for the holidays!  

Week 15

 

No school pictures this week but plenty of Christmas activity pictures! We finished our sugar cookies and had a fun night of Christmas lights. Poor Lily was diagnosed with pneumonia this week but she was a trooper. 

We had a short week of school, focusing on wrapping up things for the Christmas break. We also had a visit from our supervising teacher. The kids were off school for a long weekend at my parents’ house so I could finish up shopping and then have a full day of wrapping! One more full week of school so we should keep busy this week.

Week 14

This week started out with the best intentions.  I had planned out the work we’d accomplish before Christmas break but I’ve already had to make changes.  We still got a lot of progress on most things.  We started a month-long art project this week.  Brian did a science lab with the boys but Samuel dropped out after an hour!!  ha!  It took too long but they got the robotic arm to work using hydraulic power.  All 3 boys got the Christmas tree decorated.  Lily didn’t want to join us in that tradition this year.  We’ll all be gathered making cookies this weekend, though!  I have some tweaks to next week’s school work but we’ll keep loading our days to finish up some units before break!!
