Week 4
We worked hard this week! We finished up the digestive system...yeah...and will move on to the respiratory system next week. We finished lesson 4 in Who is God? and will start lesson 5 on Tuesday. Easy Grammar 5 is moving along. Yes, we are still on prepositions. Justin and Megan are working on Math-u-see Delta. They will finish up chapter 18 next week. This week Justin wrote a story about a lion and a mouse and Megan wrote about her dog, Buddy. For art, they made a fresco.
We spread spackling on a piece of cardboard, waited for it to dry, and painted a picture.
To add to our study of Australia, we decided to try an Australian recipe. "Anzac Biscuits" or cookies. Australians call cookies...biscuits. It was a simple recipe and they tasted pretty good.
Ok...I know they look kind of ...not so good, but really they weren't that bad. They have molasses in them which makes them look really brown. I didn't burn them I promise. I only cooked them for 10 minutes!

I actually tried the cookies and they are very good. As they say, looks aren't everything!!! I know Megan really enjoyed that activity!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Angie! She did have a great time! I'm so glad she is doing school with us. Justin and I love having her around!
ReplyDeleteI love Justin's fresco of the ship. I can tell that Megan is really having a good time making the cookies but Justin's expression in the kitchen is priceless. It looks like so much fun. I want to enroll! You are a great teacher. These two are very lucky!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary! Justin hung around just long enough for me to take the picture. He wanted nothing to do with the cooking! :)
