Week 3


HISTORY

I can't find any pics for our study of Ancient Greece but this week was fun.  Doc worked on a lapbook which included a map, a mini book of Greek gods and goddesses from the history sentence, and a section on Aesop.  We loved reading some of Aesop's Fables.    This preK pack has lots of great activities.  Our favorite was the reenactment of the Tortoise and the Hare.  I read them the story and they used the figures to tell the story.  Then, I found a Disney video of it.


MATH
Our favorite worksheets.  She's already getting the flow and starting to do some of it without me guiding her:)




SCIENCE
Something fun we did to end our study of the animal cell was that we made a pizza.  When my DH came home he was pleasantly surprised to hear words like 'cytoplasm', 'mitochondria', etc.  




PHONICS:

They learned about the letter 'M' this week.  I decided to give them a little 'homework' every week.  At the end of the week, they present things that they've found around the house that begins with the letter of the week.  I give them each a bowl and they have to say the name of each item, letter it begins with, and the sound that letter makes.  They have really enjoyed doing their presentations.



M is for Monkey
M is for Money

M is for Mail
