We went outside for a little "nature walk" in our courtyard area, while we were out there we looked for some things to add to our soda bottle terrariums. We had everything from rocks and sticks to little mini plants growing at the edge of the trees.
Last week we were learning about weather and we talked a lot about the water cycle, the terrariums worked perfectly with our discussions too.
We are still working on subtraction in Math, last week we learned a new game called Subtraction Bridge it works exactly like "London Bridge" but we keep track of how many students we start and end each round with.
It was also nice to finally get back outside for recess. I think I enjoyed it as much as the kids did.
Now that I'm all caught up on last week here's what's new this week!
We have some more readers getting excited about reading to the class.
Jace, Jasa, and Timothy all read to us on Monday! It is so exciting to see them picking new, more challenging books to read.
Today was the first day of our Standardized testing, we took on the hardest one first Reading and Language Arts. The kids were a little unsure about the whole testing process but they did an incredible job! I am so proud of them!!
Tomorrow we tackle Mathematics and I know they are going to knock it out of the park again. They are hard workers and super smarties!
Keep praying for us this week as we finish our testing we know that He will guide us and give us everything we need to succeed this week. We can do nothing without Him.
We are going to do some fun science projects this week too. It's been
nice being able to spend more time on Science activities since we aren't
doing our regular Math and Phonics curriculum this week.
Stay tuned for Sciencey stuff later this week!
