School Week 10

This week we are rowing the book: Babar To Duet or Not to Duet. This book has to do with piano playing and since A7 plays the piano I know she is going to love it. We have other Babar books and the Babar movie. YouTube has the the Duet movie, part 1 and part 2.

Geography: India(we haven't done this country yet and even though this story is set in "Celestville" which is a fictional town, I decided to use India because there are lots of elephants there!)
Social Stu: Relationships, taking advice, making yourself vurnerable, telling the truth
Language arts: copy work, music vocab words, days of the week
Science: elephants: african vs asian

X5 is going to be working on a Thomas the Train mini lapbook that will look something like this when finished.

X5 has been doing a mini lapbook for the letters of the alphabet as well, we spend two days on each letter doing different activities for the lapbook, he is on letter K and L this week.
