We learned about the missionaries, John Beekman, Jim Elliot, and David Bontrager.
We completed Prudence and the Millers and learned about honouring mothers and fathers.
Language Arts I introduced cursive. We learned Aa, Ii, and Ee. Aiden loves the new challenge and is working hard. He likes to write his name and add in the cursive letters as he learns them. Caileigh really enjoys it but finds some of the letters a little more challenging.
Spelling unit on names of numbers.
Learning contractions. Dictation writing.
Copywork, letter writing.
We read Box Car Children #114, and had to make snickerdoodle cookies after reading about them. They were yummy!
I assigned a creative writing project with the title, "Who Am I?". Aiden wrote his independently, needing help with correcting, "interested" as he had written, "interestid". Looking at it now, I realize Aiden misspelled "Lego"......whoops.
Caileigh wrote hers through copy work after telling me what she would like to say.
We made cannons using toilet paper rolls and ping pong balls to reinact the cannons that were used to crack the walls of the towers of Constantinople.
Science We made a mini book about erosion. We watched videos on Brain Pop Jr. about slow and fast land changes.
We went for a walk collecting and identifying fall leaves. The kids worked together to make me a wreath for the front door, as well as making a wreath for their bedroom doors.
We watched a bear walk by our house. Lot's of discussion on bear safety!
We explored Scout Island. We watched an osprey try to protect it's food from the crows.
