After taking two weeks off, enjoying our time with my parents while they were in town, it was nice to get back to our schedule. We really loved having my parents here and miss them a lot. The bad part of us moving here not being as close to them as before, really thankful we got to have that time with them. This week we will learn about our sense of sight: every detail of how our eyes work, the parts of our eye, and more. Also learn about the weather focusing more on lighting and thunder. Read more on the Germanic tribes, John that Baptist, Jesus being tempted, and Jesus' death and resurrection. Study what the bible said about what we need to do when we get or get a temper. Will work on drawing more straight lines, circles, and hands. D will also have his own store will we will buy items from him and he will add them up, great way for him to review his addition, and learn to count money (coins). In for a very fun week of learning.
