Math: Olivia finished her chapter in math and is now moving on to shapes and measurement.
English: Brianna has restarted watching CNN Student News for her daily writing. We watch the day's episode together and then she picks a topic from the news cast to write a paragraph about.
Olivia decided to make these mice cupcakes with Brianna for Poetry Teatime. |
Science: Olivia and Brianna had a great time with Cornell's bird identifier app. Because Brianna has always been fond of identifying the local birds, she quizzed Olivia to remember distinctions to be able to look up the bird.
History/Geography: Brianna finished World War II in Color for her Holocaust study and is now watching through Auschwitz: The Nazis and the Final Solution.
Phys Ed: The weather is getting better so we'll hopefully be getting out for more walks and Brianna will be able to start running outdoors again. For this week's Homeschool Coop, we walked to and from the library, roughly a 5km route (just over 3 miles). Brianna also did a general workout once.
French: Brianna is really enjoying her DuoLingo and was tickled to pass me in progress (which wasn't hard, I keep forgetting to do it lol)
Other: The girls have been watching Signing Time with Joshua a lot lately and all 3 of them have picked up loads more sign language! The girls are even starting to put together sentences to show off their skills
Linking up with Weird Unsocialized Homeschoolers and The Practical Mom
World War II in Color... I've never heard of that. We were looking for more than just picture books when we were studying World War II but most of the movies seemed to violent and upsetting for my brood.
ReplyDeleteMost WWII movies/shows are pretty violent, but that's really hard to avoid when you're learning about war. Brianna's a mature 13 yr old though so she can handle the more gory stuff
