Week 23

In science this week we learned about disease. We learned about how some diseases are spread and how deadly they are. Airborne viruses spread pretty easily. Measles is one of the very most contagious diseases known.

We assembled a gingerbread house kit.

We learned about the countries of Peru and Ecuador in our geography studies and how to find them on a map. 

We went sledding at Rock Canyon Park. 

 Mali: In Math this week I worked on mental strategies for addition. I read some of my practice books for reading. I had a lot of fun working on drawings on the ipad. We also did a Drawing for Kids lesson from YouTube. I went to the Christkindlmarkt with my mom. The traffic was really crazy and it was busy but we still had fun. I got a felted wool panda purse. 

Max: I drew a picture for my DIY.org account profile. I finished up fractions in Math. I read more of the Diary of a Minecraft Zombie book that I am reading.

We sorted the buttons from mom's button jar. Max got all the sparkly clear ones. 

Mali got the shiny metallic ones.
