Well, it's been another really fun week that ended with my baby turning 11!
We began the week with an incredibly fun preteen boy day. The boys got together and dressed up in camo and had a military appreciation day! They played games, they shot, they did relays and rode go karts. They had an absolute blast and the moms had fun, too!
We also had a science day at the Museum of Science. The kids had a class where they made ice cream, but, each table had a different type of salt. One table had no salt...each table had a thermometer to record the temp changes and did so every two minutes. Very interesting the temp differences with different salts! Two tables had salt that actually made ice cream!
After the ice cream class, we went ahead and toured the museum, dug for dinosaur bones, played in huge bubbles and had a great day! He learned about plasma, electricity and lightening...for some reason, that was his favorite thing to learn about while strolling the museum.
We finished the book, "The Cay" and he says THIS ONE is his favorite book now! He's also still reading his western book, "The Copelands" and is enjoying that as well.
The new grammar curriculum should be in soon...and we also borrowed a new writing curriculum. It looks promising...I'll keep ya posted.
