Math - algebra and integers (she was pleased to tell me she already learned all about integers at Math Center)
L.A. - Essay Voyage, parenthetical phrases, fixing punctuation and subject/verb disagreement in essay, and analyzing the Gettysburg address for connecting words, micro-language and personal pronouns. On her own, Zoe wanted to memorize some of the speech.
History - Netflix DVD - The Conquest of America. Ah... some historical info on European and Native American relations just in time for Thanksgiving.
Science - a Ted Talk on the Animation of the Cell
Mommy Time - Went on a Fall Leaf Walk. It was cold!
Arts/Crafts - Made a fall leaf swag for our mantle.
Literature - Online class about internal and external details in an Nathanial Hawthorne story and learned how to make a poster on Glogster.
lovely swag, and I like how you put the three leaves up on top. Looks like you guys had another full but gentle day :)
ReplyDeleteZ looks cold. We will have to look at the animation. It looks like a productive day, and I like the decoration.
ReplyDeleteAmi helped her dad decorate outdoors for Halloween yesterday, and took the dog for a walk. It cooled early this year dropping below 100s into the 80s. So she is getting outdoors again.
We have not yet looked at Glogster, but it sounds interesting. Ami really liked Voice Thread. She wanted to make a report on Concord and the authors' houses with photos from a trip, but it was a week of change.
V. has been dying to show me Glogster, but I have been *soooo* busy and neglectful. Is it already winter there too? It is freezing here, like we've skipped ahead 6 weeks.
ReplyDeleteYour mantle looks lovely -- that was a sacrifice we made: lots of space, lots of room, gorgeous woodwork, no fireplace.
