This week we will be reviewing the four seasons, learning about addition, working on long i silent e, long o, abstract art and the books of the bible.
BOOKS
Some of the great books we used this week
BIBLE
Talked about Zebras and how they work together to keep each other safe from harm. They work best as a team, just as we should cooperate with one another.
Learned about how geese work together and encourage each other in many different ways. That's how God wants to do with each other, build each other up not tear each other down.
We found out that whooping cranes love to dance. They take time from flying to relax and have fun. God not only wants us to work hard but to also take out of our busy schedule to just have fun and relax.
Introduction into the Old and New Testament in the bible.
BIBLE VERSE
Memory versus: He who gathers crops in summer is a wise son,
~Proverbs 10:5a
Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another and working together with one heart and purpose.
~Philippians 2:2
Rejoice. Change your ways. Encourage each other. Live in harmony and peace. Then the God of love and peace will be with you.
~2 Corinthians 13:11 b
Always be joyful.
~1 Thessalonians 5:16

ARTS & CRAFTS
Abstract art, she had so much fun learning about abstract art. She always wants me to join her in her art lessons so I did the top right picture and she did the bottom right picture. Love how her desire to learn about art.
ACTIVITIES
Went outside to enjoy the second day of summer, she was making up different ways to get water out of the kiddie pool. Love how she uses her imagination to make up new ways to do things.
To go with little man's lesson of "Identifying body parts" I gave the kids some foot massage, which they enjoyed a whole lot. Love pampering my babies.
Instead of using 66 books to represent the books in the Bible we decided on using legos. It was great counting practice and she even did them in a pattern.
SCIENCE
Reviewed about the equator and the four seasons, we read this awesome book (top left picture) and it helped explain everything about the four seasons and the reason why they change. She wants me to buy the book for our own collection.
Printed out these worksheets from Kids Activities Blog , seek and find from the four seasons.
Printed out this worksheet of cut and paste from Teachers Pay Teachers Website, she would place the correct pictures with the seasons it belonged in.
POEMS
FOUR SEASONS
By: Cecil Frances Alexander
The fields are rich with daffodils,
A coat of clover cloaks the hills,
And I must dance, and I must sing
To see the beauty of the spring.
The earth is warm, the sun's ablaze,
It is a time of carefree days;
And bees abuzz that chance to pass
May see me snoozing in the grass.
The leaves are yellow, red, and brown,
A shower sprinkles softly down;
The air is fragrant, crisp, and cool,
And once again I'm stuck in school.
The birds are gone, the world is white,
The winds are wild, they chill and bite;
The ground is thick with slush and sleet,
And I can barely feel my feet.
The last is done, the next is here,
The same as it is every year;
Spring -- then sunshine ' autumn ' snow,
That is how each year must go.
A coat of clover cloaks the hills,
And I must dance, and I must sing
To see the beauty of the spring.
The earth is warm, the sun's ablaze,
It is a time of carefree days;
And bees abuzz that chance to pass
May see me snoozing in the grass.
The leaves are yellow, red, and brown,
A shower sprinkles softly down;
The air is fragrant, crisp, and cool,
And once again I'm stuck in school.
The birds are gone, the world is white,
The winds are wild, they chill and bite;
The ground is thick with slush and sleet,
And I can barely feel my feet.
The last is done, the next is here,
The same as it is every year;
Spring -- then sunshine ' autumn ' snow,
That is how each year must go.

Sibling Love
After a week off for our mini vacation we got back into the swing of school again. This week she learned about adding to get the sum of 3-7, abstract art, long i & o, and about how and why birds migrate when the seasons change.
