Week 9

This week, we finished reading about the older and current models of the solar system and did a quick sticker model.  We have a more intensive model we'll be working on throughout the year, though!  We also tried astronaut food and there were divided opinions.  We met our supervising teacher and that was actually a fun visit!  We finished our read aloud (finally, it was a bore) and started the next one.  The new one is about a group of boys who discover a bomb was accidentally dropped into a lake so from the onset, it's a little more interesting.  We ended our week with pumpkin carving!  It's always fun to see the creations.  

 

Week 8

No pictures of school this week because it was an extremely busy week with appointments. The boys got the main things done but there was no time for extras. We’re also attempting to see the visible comet but have not had luck yet! Next week, we will meet our supervising teacher and have more time to get everything done!

 

Week 7

This week was busy with dentist appointments but we got work done, too.  The only pictures I got were of the Northern lights.  We called it a field trip.  It was pretty exciting for us!! Otherwise, school as usual.  There was a complaint about "all the work" assigned this week but I assured them that they would survive.

 

Week 6

 

We had school pictures on Monday and a field trip on Thursday this week! This was our 13th trip to Bloomsbury with the homeschool group and it’s not as fun for their age but it’s tradition! We did manage to get normal schoolwork done this week, as well!!
