This week was kicked off with a walk in the woods with our homeschool group. L really enjoyed the adventure and F kept asking about the playground. He did seem to enjoy seeing the fallen trees and various plants.
We've been working on our first Story of the World chapter this week. It's about Nomads, hunting & gathering, the Fertile Crescent and nomads becoming farmers. We went outside to gather items with the idea of building a shelter. A shelter for whom? Well, it turned out to be for the fairies:
We also tried our hand at "cave" paintings. I made one as an example:
I also fit in a little science, after a friend shared an experiment last week on Facebook:
Soap Souffle
These were the highlights of our week. The BOB books and Monster Fighter book are still woking well for us. Reading The Hobbit is going well too. Writing sheets to practice each letter are being started (I think this will build his confidence a bit) and we're focusing on skip counting right now (Evens, Odds, by 5s and by 10s)
