School Week 23

One week ago we rowed the book Wake Up, Groundhog in honor of Groundhog day!
We also read about the history of the holiday and where it's celebrate now(Punxsutawney,Pa). We even made our own prediction, of course we predicted wrong, Phil saw his shadow... dumb groundhog, A8 was quite upset.. ha ha!

It was a lot of fun, A8 did the lapbook all by herself this time, she also did some copy work and she drew Phil and his shadow.

We talked about weather prediction, how they predict the weather on TV(weather channel) using satellites, and just how accurate Phil has been over the years...39%.

X5 rowed the books Stranger in the Woods and If You Give a Moose a Muffin. We did a lapbook for both books. X5 is really enjoying the lapbooks, it makes reading the book so much better for him. I have to say I like reading a book for only two days, it keeps him more interested!

We are right on schedule with math, phonics and handwriting. He gets lots of letters and numbers practice. He is working on his name since he insist on using his Webkinz user name as his name... not for long!!
