Week 7


Mighty Girl of the Week:


Math
3 pages of MEP (grade 1, pages 59-61 )  

I'm amused by how she has likes to use the not equal sign.  When asked to place the appropriate sign between the numbers, her first choice was not equal.  She beamed mischievously afterward.  I asked her to fill in ALL the possibilities.




Reading
She read 8 books on her own this week, including:

   She read:             
The Big Bad Blizzard 
Cherry Pies and Lullabies
Peguin in Love
Danny and the Dinosaur
Ratatouille - Run, Remy, Run
The Monster Parade
The Princess and the Frog

   We read:
        Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (a chapter a day)



Sight Words
Reviewed all past sight words

Spelling
no spelling this week


Writing Practice
Two sentences plus spelling words.



Geography
Stackable States and the Province App.



Art

We did leaf prints this week.  They turned out amazing!


Physical Ed
Taekwondo classes (3) and dance classes (2).

She spent afternoons at Colwell playing.

Reflections on the week:
I wasn't as organized, thematically speaking this week, but we covered all the basics, took a field trip and did a cool art project.  It was good!
