Tot School/Preschool Wrap Up Letter C and Pets (part 1)

As I mentioned in my big kid's wrap-up post, this was a short week.  We did school on Tuesday and Wednesday only, so we didn't get much of our letter C work in.  We will have to continue next week.

We started our Claude Monet water lily paintings-which we will finish this week.  Everyone loved this.  

Explorer worked on her letter C Tot School Printables.   Mini Cooper completed a couple pages in her Adventures with Books workbook.

They both had lots of fun using our Bear Family Math.  I guess it's not really a 'C' or 'pet' item, more of an 'I forgot we had this for letter B and I thought we should use it.'

We read about John Quincy Adams and added a new coloring page to our President's book.  The color page is from Crayola.com.

We tried stamping 'c' on our cat page (an idea from 1plus1plus1equalsone).  She loved it, but, um, I don't think we will do it again until my memory lapses and I forget how this turned out (and YES that will happen).

While I was working with one of the other kids, she 'finished' stamping her cat and started stamping herself.  It was a great look that stuck around for a day or two.  Thank goodness we didn't have to go anywhere.

I caught Explorer working on the knobbed cylinders. I would have taken more photos when she got the rest out, but she turned and yelled at me for taking her picture, lol!!

She also spent a decent amount of time on her pet's sound puzzle.

We also talked about Pennsylvania and colored a page for our state books.  This book also came from Crayola.com.

Mini Cooper then joined Charger in putting together the US Puzzle map-about 3 times!

Oh Monday we had some fun 'life' school and found out that our new baby will be a....you can see the post here.  

Next week we have big plans!  Hopefully they will materialize.  

Hope you had a great school week!

God Bless,

Weekly Wrap Up 2014 Week 2

Well, to be honest with you, this was a VERY short week.  All of 2 school days, and one of them shortened, lead to not a lot to blog about.  But, I am determined to keep up with our weeks this year, so I am still going to share our short week.

Monday:

We did not have any 'real' school.  But, we took a field trip to see if baby #5 was a boy or a girl.  If you haven't seen it, you may want to see our posted results, here.

Then we headed off to celebrate with an ice cream and playtime!

Tuesday:

We read about John Quincy Adams in our president's book, then began work on our Claude Monet paintings.

In Bible, we watched Daniel and the Lion's Den from Superbook.




Wednesday:

We continued our state studies with Pennsylvania.  Both Mustang and Charger decided to go ahead and work on their new state pages right away.

We are using the state notebook from Primary Graffiti-it is FREE!  I found out about this from Carissa-thank you!

For individual work this week:

Mustang completed her Claude Monet copy work (using a page I got from Harrington Harmonies), worked on creative writing, and completed the US Puzzle Map.  She also memorized 3 sections in her AWANA book.

Charger worked on his Primary Arts of Language lessons, here he is playing a game to choose the correct form of to, too, or two.

Once again, the US Puzzle Map was a big hit.  They ask to work on it in school and also during playtime.  Charger and Mini Cooper love to work together (which of course I love to see).  Charger also completed 3 sections in his AWANA Sparks book and received a green jewel.

Like I said, it was a short week.  Next week, we should be back in full swing.  On the agenda is to finish our Monet paintings and finally learn about volcanoes.  Should be good!

Hope you had a great week, too!

God Bless,

Lisa
