Week 17

This week we did an easy, festive art project. We finished up the Middle Ages in history and wrapped up the reading on Venus. The 2nd picture is Samuel coloring in our model of Venus, with Oliver watching closely. We finished our Christmas read aloud and our advent readings (early but we had to fit it in). It was a full week but we had a Christmas escape room activity on Friday to wrap up school before break. We’re now off for 2 weeks!

 

Week 16

This week was pretty much normal for us. We wrapped up our study of Mercury and started on Venus. We finished our art project and continued our other work. We’re focused on wrapping stuff up for break!!

 

Week 15

Back to school for 3 weeks!  We are focused on the upcoming Christmas break!  This week, we began an art project that has already challenged us a bit.  We'll see how it turns out next week.  We started our study of Mercury and continued our study of the Middle Ages.  We paused our read aloud to start a Christmas story about mice.  It's definitely for younger kids but it's fun to have a seasonal read aloud! Our writing is interesting because we are using pictures to create an outline for our paragraphs.  I think they enjoy being more creative.  We had a visit from our supervising teacher this week so we're done with all MHSAP duties until the new {calendar} year!
