MFW: ECC and K4 Week 28

MFW: ECC & K4 WEEK 28

We will continue our studies on Japan, learn more about their culture, how they do things differently from us, and more crafts.  Also continue learning about the ocean.  D will focus on learning the letters he still hasn't mastered this week and and his numbers.  He's mastered his colors so we won't focus too much on that this week.

LANGUAGE ARTS



Working on her spelling words and practicing her handwriting in cursive and regular writing.  



Spelling word fun 

This week I've been working with D on his letters, more like a review.  I would write some letters on the board and if he got it correct he would erase it from the other board.  We've been concentrating more on the ones he doesn't seem to grasp.



Went back and used some worksheets to work on his letter review.

MATH



Multiplication and Division work



Learning about the value of money.



He really enjoyed the money sticks.

Matching numbers and colors

Matching the number on the dice eraser 

Playing dominos 

ARTS & CRAFT



We made Kimono Doll Bookmark and Japanese Lanterns.

Learned about the Katsushika Hokusia and his painting techniques.  Made our version of "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".

GEOGRAPHY

North Korea

Learned about Haiku poems and how they are made of 3 lines: 1st one with 5 syllables, 2nd one with 7 syllables, and 3rd one has 5 syllables.  K really enjoyed this project and made a Haiku poem on a Tree outside our window.

TREE

Hi green and brown tree.
Oh Tree, Oh Tree in the sky.
Standing tall and brave.
~KSC~

SCIENCE



Learned more on the animals that are unique to Japan.



Completing her worksheets on the Ocean and Estuary.

NATURE WALK 



My parents went to the beach this week, we couldn't go this time with them since little man and me were sick.  They sent us pictures and even collected sea shells for us.  We observed many pictures and videos on the ocean and all the plants and animals that live near and in the ocean.

We got to enjoy some time outdoors since it was warm enough.

VIDEOS



Watched Season 3 Episode 1 about the Mangrove Tree and the animals that live in that area.  Went perfect with our studies for this week.

MUSIC

Wee Sing: Pok Amai, Amai

FIELD TRIP



Didn't get a chance to go anywhere this week due to some of us getting over a cold.  We got to enjoy some more time with my cousin before she left to Puerto Rico.  She will be missed greatly, thank goodness for FaceTime.

Finished our studies on Japan and loved learning everything we did.  Kids really loved the arts and crafts and enjoyed some Japanese food too.  Learned a lot more about the ocean and all it has to offer.  We need to all do our part in order to conserve our oceans, so much pollution and so many fish and plants dying.  Pray that someday our oceans will be clean again.  Unto next week to start our studies on Russia.
GOD BLESS!!!
