WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS

PRESTON

Preston got to participate in a simulation in his Key of Liberty class.  There were people dressed up like the 1700s who acted out different parts to create a realistic feeling that the kids were actually there.  It was a very cool experience for Preston.  

MARISSA

Marissa learned about North America for Geography this week.  She traced the shape and labeled the different countries. 

She also worked on grammar diagramming sentences.  We also read a couple of books to help learn about the importance of grammar and punctuation.  

CALEB

Caleb worked on learning about engineering and building using cups this week.  He stacked several different types of plastic cups to see how high he could built walls and towers without having them fall down.  He enlisted Marissa's help a couple of times as well.  

He also had a great time learning about heroes in his class and creating structures with play dough.  They have been studying Abraham Lincoln and he has learned so much.  

OTHER

FALL

We had fun this week reading about Autumn and creating different things with fall leaves.  Marissa's Doodle Crate arrived and happened to be a project to create a tree so she did that as well.  It was a lot of fun!
