BOOK
Books for the week
BIBLE
Learned about David Livingstone and all the wonderful things he did for Africa.
Memory Verse: No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money. Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important that clothes?

This week we learned more about pumpkins and so the kids made pumpkin stamps using apples I cut in half. They gave their art work to their grandparents.
Made pictures using their pumpkin seeds and then D placed a few pumpkins in order by size from smallest to biggest and biggest to smallest.
Made a dance with her African mask she made last week.
Learning about the fastest route missionaries would make and then played the geography game.
SCIENCE
Sweet Potato Experiment
Life Underground in Africa
Learning about the "Pumpkin Life Cycle".
For our pumpkin lessons this week we observed several pumpkins at my in-laws house that was growing in their backyard.
Mixed some baking soda and water in our pumpkin silicone tray and then froze them overnight. The next day gave the kids a cup of water for them to pour over the pumpkins and watch them fizz.
My mom came over and carved the pumpkin and then the kids observed the inside of it.
I poured about 2 cups of baking soda inside the pumpkin while K and D took turns pouring vinegar inside the pumpkin to watch it spit out the pumpkins mouth.
D had a blast playing soccer this weekend, his team won 5-2.
K did a great job in her game and her team won 2-1.
This week K's team had their celebration and got their metals. It was a bitter sweet moment since this was our last year with her coach after 3 years. Her and her family are moving and will be missed greatly.
Watched "Black Panther", I know its all fake but the kids got excited when they found it was done in a pretend city in Africa. We've watched it several time before but it seemed to be more exciting this time around.
MUSIC
Wee Sing "Bebe Moke"
FIELD TRIP
Went to Washington D.C. for my husband's job and the kids and I took advantage of it and explored the museums there. One of them had a display of the types of animals you would find in Africa. Best way to finish our studies of Africa.
Observing giraffes and other animals at the watering hole.
My brother bought the kids a dinosaur kit which they could build 3 different dinosaurs. It was so much fun seeing it come together each time.
Finished our studies on Africa this week, it has so much fun learning all we could on Africa. Learned about pumpkins, it's life cycle, observed the inside of a pumpkin, and got to have some fun with pumpkin seeds. Reviewed all we saw on our trip to Washington D.C. the week before, loved seeing the animals in Africa displays. We have learned so much about Africa and will always keep the missionaries in our prayers for their safety.
GOD BLESS!!!
