Monday, August 29, 2011

Great day of school today! I am still experimenting on how things ought to be run, but each thing seems to be working better and better.

I pulled out all of E's sheets for grammar, math, handwriting and phonics and put them in her binder. She knows to get one sheet out per day and that is her independent work. She watched Mr. Steve for her lesson on multiplying 1 and 0 today. Did really well and actually said she liked math today!!! That is definite progress from last year. :)

Also did:
  • Bible - verse is Psalm 139:14
  • Spelling - did her list on spellingcity.com

Following all done on time4learning:
  • Science - passed her test on life cycles
  • Social Studies - passed her test on the globe vs. maps (country and city)
  • LA - fluency reading
  • Grammar - also worked on making sentences out of index cards (nouns, verbs and adjectives)



P's day:
  • Verse - Proverbs 12:22
  • Handwriting - continued working on correct forms of letters
  • Bible - God created people. She had to draw a picture of herself showing "God did not make anyone else like me"
  • Math - we went back to the very basics so she wasn't so aggravated. We worked on adding 0 and adding 1 along with "playing" with the manipulative blocks to recognize color with amount
  • Spelling - did page 86 with her spelling words still from last week
  • Poetry - we reviewed "The Caterpillar" and she is almost ready to recite and let me video
  • Phonics - we worked on blends and coding words with short vowels and circling our blends

G - still trucking along and writing her letters and numbers. She did the number 8 today and was able to cut out 9 rectangles, color them the correct color, and then paste to the correct corresponding color word.


We got a lot done today and I am proud of our Monday!!!
