WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS

PRESTON

Preston finished reading "The Great Little Madison" and participated in a book discussion in his Key of Liberty class.  He also worked on journaling the Constitution.  He finished all the articles and will now go on to work on journaling each of the amendments.  

MARISSA

Marissa gave a presentation in her Ninja Scholar class this week.  She did amazing!  She taught the class about rabbits.  She did the research, a poster and talking points for her presentation all by herself.  

CALEB

Caleb worked on reading and handwriting this week.  He finished reading a "Princess in Black" book (which are books that are definitely not just for girls).  He also read some smaller readers for his "All About Reading" assignments and worked on more basic cursive handwriting skills.  He's doing great! 

He built a really cool ramp structure in his Heroic Youth class.  They learned about the Von Trapp family this week.  He also had show and tell.  He had to work on some strong emotions since his cork gun that he brought to show the class broke and it was really special to him.  After getting settled and talking it through a bit, he went back to class and shared the other half of his show and tell which was a magnetic license plate from Moab, UT with his name on it.  It was definitely good practice for emotional resilience and grit during class this week!  

OTHER

P.E. (SWIMMING)

We went swimming as a family to the South Davis Recreational Center this week.  The kids had a great time and all practiced their strokes in the pool.  They surprised us with their fearless desire to jump off the high dive.  So much fun!
