ART 



Lesson 88: Painting a Stone 


Lesson 42: Christ at the Sea of Galilee


Saw this cute idea online and just had to make our own for our family.  Believing and praying that this virus will be gone soon in Jesus name.  Love spending this time with my family and making great memories beside the circumstances. 


Bought some sun catchers at Dollar Tree for the kids to paint this weekend.  They came out so cute.  

SCIENCE



A feather close up experiment.



Got one of out bird's feather and used it for our experiment, don't worry we didn't pluck her.  We got this feather from when she was molting, no bird was harmed during this experiment.  It was so neat to see her feather under a microscope.  Gives us a better understanding with how her feathers work.  


Compared her feather to Velcro.


A picture of our beautiful bird CoCo.


She's very loving when she is out of her cage, which is rare.  We leave the cage door open but she prefers to stay in her cage.  K is not keen on holding CoCo or having her near, she doesn't really like birds.  She had a bad experience with a cat clawing her when she was 4 and since then has stayed away from birds and cats.


Printed out this cute penguin worksheet from Teachers Pay Teachers website. The kids colored the picture, for the white part they used a white crayon and then used a spray bottle to spray water on the penguin.  This helped demonstrate how water repels off a feather.


Waterproof Toilet Paper Experiment 


Poured some oil in the glass jar and then some water on top of it.  Then the kids stirred them to try to combine the oil and water.   Of course it didn't combine.  Afterwards I poured some oil on a plate and K covered a square piece of toilet paper in it and then put it on top of the water.  D placed a regular square piece of toilet paper on top of the water.  The one covered in oil floated on top of the water and the other one went under water.  


Since we still had some oil left over on the plate I had the kids pour some soapy water in the oil.  It was neat to see the oil separate.  


Added some dish soap to the oil and water in the jar.  The kids then proceeded to mix the ingredients in the jar.  At first it looked like it all mix together, and then once it settled the oil raised back up top.  


Looked online to see what types of birds live here and we have actually seen several of these birds in our backyard.  


Pretending to fly like a bird.

MUSIC/VIDEO


Watched Sid the Science Kid to learn more on bird home and nest.


Watched a couple of Nature Shows on Netflix on birds.



Listened to "Say Hello to Classical Music: Saint-Saens: Carnival of the Animals (Birds) and The Best of Handel".
FIELD TRIP 


Went for a walk and bird watching around our neighborhood.  


Made bird feeders using our left over toilet paper rolls, peanut butter, and some of Coco's seeds.  Covered the rolls in peanut butter then rolled them in the bird seeds. 


Kids hung 6 bird feeders throughout the backyard.


They love using ABC Mouse for their extra school pratice.  


This week we learned about Elijah and the still small voice, India Caste System, Hinduism, Elisha, Naboth's Vineyard, Buddhism, when Elijah was taken in a whirlwind, Christ at the Sea of Galilee, and about India.  Worked on graphs word problems and decimals.  Learned a new Greek word: chronons (time), birds, water to air, and waterproofing feathers.  Throughout the week we celebrated Passover and Easter.  Little man worked on the letter Qq, all things birds especially quails, addition, and subtraction.
