Weeks 9 and 10

Week 9

We did our pumpkin unit. We weighed the pumpkin. We measured the pumpkin We tested to see if pumpkins would float. We made a lapbook with our pumpkin worksheets. We ended our week by making pumpkin pie. That was the highlight to our Week 9. We kept up with math, reading, and TOG. We didn't do a TOG project since we were doing activities with our pumpkin unit. For SWR we made up our own spelling list from the words that had been previously missed.

Week 10

There aren't any pictures for this week.

Turtle Toes - has been reading Bob Books. He has read the first 6 and keeps plugging along. He is still adamant that we do math each day too. I do admit to trying not to do math with him everyday :)

I would like to use FIAR more. We have been busy with TOG which Turtle Toes participates in and so we haven't been doing FIAR. I really feel like he is missing out. I need to come up with a better plan for FIAR.

Turkey Lips - Has started reading a Robin Hood book and is enjoying that. (he was Robin Hood for Halloween) Math has been a struggle this week. We are learning about 100,000 and 10,000 and 1,000 place value. Turkey Lips is getting a little bit confused so we are going to keep working on it this week too. TOG we read The Squire and the Scroll and we all enjoyed that. We also read from our history book. We have started doing a daily reading for Thanksgiving as well. I found a download at The Homeschool E Store that has daily readings.

I would like to finish up our literature worksheet next week and also read our in depth history book on Joan of Arc.

This week we didn't have a project either. We will start doing some crafts for Thanksgiving now.

I need to plan out our Thanksgiving Unit. I also feel like I need to spend some time just going through everything to see where we are and where I would like to be by the end of the year.

That is about it :)

Thanks for reading.
