L. Arts:
MALI: I did a review week to practice mastering more words and improve fluency. We played quite a few Ziggy Zebra games with my flashcards. I read a bunch of the stories in my lesson reader that I have read before.
MAX: I did some spelling word practice. I read the first and second stories in my lesson reader. I started reading Ricky Ricotta’s Mighty Robot vs the Mecha Monkeys from Mars. I practiced reading words with EA in them. I memorized a poem called Singing Time.
Math:MALI: I did some more subtraction pages in my workbook. I did some Dreambox lessons about making 100.
MAX: I did Dreambox lessons about moving some of one number to the number you are adding it to in order to make it easier to add in your head. For example, instead of adding 202 + 157, you add 200 + 159. I did more workbook pages with shapes and patterns.
Science:
In our co-op Marine Biology class we learned about classification and made posters classifying different groups of marine animals. At home for science we started a unit about bodies. We named all the parts of the body we could think of and talked about how in some ways a body is like a car--there are lots of parts that need to work together for everything to run smoothly.
History:
We learned about Sparta & Athens. Spartans were more concerned about being physically strong and fighting, so in their schools the boys all learned to fight and being strong was really important. In Athens, it was more important to the people that the kids grow up to be educated about numbers and philosophy because they had a democracy and wanted the people to vote for good laws.
Tech (Engineering):
At the Curiosity Museum we built some really big Lego stairs. We also built some things with the little sunburst/circle things they have in the building room.
