Homeschooling Summary for Last Week

This week we did Joy School and babysat the cousins again. Big sister A has been independently interested in using her new found letter writing skills to create notes on her drawings. It is good writing practice and we try to consider the phonics of what she is spelling at that time as well. Big sister A has also been helping brother M with his shapes and colors. It is cute to see her playing flashcards with him. Baby S is sitting up!

plastic dishes are so much fun pull out all over the floor

For science this week we talked about vibrations and air making sounds and made kazoos.  This activity was not a great success. The kids were much more interested in decorating their kazoos than experimenting with them.

On Wednesday, we talked about bees - where they live, what they do, and then made diagrams of their body parts. The kiddos enjoyed this activity, especially cousin B.  She is a great little scientist.
