Week 17

Scotty-

Math: I did a bunch of reviewing and red and blue make brown.  I messed up and had to fix stuff.

Language Arts:  I read a chapter of a book called The Enormous Egg and then I wrote down my favorite part from the chapter.

Science: I learned about how money is made.  And someone once stamped a coin twice and it was worth $2,000 dollars and it was only a penny. The money is made of cotton and linen.  And it's against the law to print money.  People can even go to jail for doing that.

Tech: I built it was called drive, it was a little machine that drives forward, it wouldn't stay up, so I added the little things on the front that are like hands to help hold it up.  Then I added eyes just for fun.

Karate:  I couldn't go to karate because I was so sick.  So I practiced at home.  I want to get my next belt!

Beth-

Math: This time I practiced the same thing again. I had to see if I knew the same things I knew before.

Language Arts:  I read a story about a man and his cat that wanted to lick him.

Dance: We just keep learning the Christmas dance. It is fun to dance with the star wand though!

Week 16

Scotty-

Math: I learned to skip by fives.  I also learned about money.  The nickel is worth 5.  Mom told me a story where someone stole her money, because they tricked her by saying nickels are worth more than dimes because they are bigger.  So dimes are worth 10 cents and they tricked her. I need to know my money so no one can trick me. 

Language Arts:  I learned about Homophones.  They are words that sound the same but mean different things.  Like eight and ate and to and two.  I also am learning my spelling again with the teapot poem.

Science: We asked the question, "Why is Mars red?"  The answer is because there is lots of Iron in the ground and it rusts from water.  They think there was water on Mars a long time ago.  We also watched a bonus about, robots.  My two favorites were one Spot Mini and robot arms that could make you dinner.  Spot Mini is like a dog and it was giving a guy his drink and doing the dishes and opening a door.

Tech:  I built a dolphin in tech and I made it swim.  It didn't have building instructions, so I had to figure it out with pictures.

Karate:  Karate was really hard this week.  I had to keep doing things over and over that I didn't know.

Beth-

Math: This week I learned about the units and the tens house.  They live on decimal street.  The tens live in a blue house and the units live in a green house.

Language Arts:  I read a story about kids running into a shack.  And also I learned a new word and it says A. And also that new word "said".

Dance: We just keep learning the Christmas dance. It is fun to dance with the star wand though!

Week 14

Scotty-

Math:  I practiced writing by 10's.  I was excited because I kind of already knew some of this that I learned.

Language Arts:   I read a whole entire book.  It was a long one about a raccoon. It also was in a Christmas tree and Christmas is now, so it was so cool!

Science: This mystery this week was if there was ever really dragons.  There wasn't really dragons, but they think that old people from long time ago found old dinosaurs bones and they thought they were dragons. 

Tech:  I built another Lego Wedo.  This one pulled tires.  It was so fun!

Karate:  In karate this week I got my gold belt!  I passed! So excited!

Beth-

Math: Ok, so this time I got to count and color the boxes. So I made a fourty one.

I read a story about a cat and there was a new sound of guh.
