This week, Captain Science studied the Hittites, Babylonians, and Assyrians. He read The Hittite Warrior. He covered chapters three and four in Life of Fred: Fractions and successfully demonstrated mastery of long division. In science lab, he built on earlier concepts of circuits and switches by learning about fuses. Grammar lessons covered possessive nouns and nouns of direct address. Writing (which took forever and a day this week) introduced key word outlines and using strong adjectives, “-ly words,” and action verbs in summaries. He also attended the homeschool co-op and took martial arts, chess, match club, and filmmaking. Busy week for Captain Science!
The Tank enjoyed week 2 of away-from-home preschool. He brought some several painted pictures, one of which was an entire white piece of paper painted red, titled “A Bomb.”
Babypie has started playing with toys and added “w” and “b” to her list of baby sounds. It’s not really school-related, but babies have smrt lernins, too.
