HOMESCHOOL WEEKLY WRAP UP! WEEK OF 9/20/10


Our homeschool group to join in National Gymnastics Day - so we went! All 3 of my kids LOVED it!
Thank you April for inviting us! My kids had a blast!

Kindergarten:


trampoline, swinging & rings

This week we started our Galloping the Globe currciculum, our 1st country is Austrailia, we will be covering a country 1X a month. This week we learned about some of the animals from Australia using Draw Write Now - thanks to my dear friend April who is letting us borrow her book!
JJ made a map of the countries
He drew a kangaroo (see the Joey) + we learned about marsupial animals.

Preschool:

Rings & balance beam
Jumping Beans craft from Community Bible Study - they are learning about Noah's Ark
We are continuing to learn our numbers, counting & number recognition
Learning numbers using static cling window decals
Birthday Cake learning numbers by Learning Resources (matching the candles to the correct number)

Tiny Tot School:
She LOVED jumping on the trampoline
walking the balance beam with help from papa
She likes to play with The Magnetic Picture Board
