We finished our first unit of both LHTH & LHFHG today. K made letter "A's" with ice cubes on construction paper. D even joined in on the fun! We did her "A-A-Adam" rhyme again (I have a feeling we'll be repeating this in future units even though every unit has its own rhyme). Her Bible story today was about Cain & Abel. She acted out being "angry" with a Tigger puppet and then she acted out the right reaction to anger with the Tigger puppet. I wish I had captured it on video...she followed my directions and acted it out perfectly. She learned the right way to handle her anger (we specifically talked about NOT screaming!). :o)
D had a good day with not one complaint about playing during school time. Hooray! I think it helped that we took a morning walk (D ran) prior to starting our school day.
He began his second chapter of math (counting to 20 - review) and we concentrated on making the numbers correctly. The way he makes a "6" and "9" were creative, but I had to correct them.
He flew through his phonics story and review of words. I can't wait to be done with 100 Lessons so we can get into REAL books every day and increase his reading confidence!
For History we read about Adam & Eve and D made the next picture for our timeline ("The Fall" with a tree and snake around it representing Satan). We played "Adam says..." (variation of Simon Says) and K joined in for this. We reviewed the continents song which he doesn't really like to participate in - but K does the motions and D points out the continents...he found all but one correctly!
We also read another chapter of Reddy Fox - D is enjoying the book and even made me read a chapter to daddy the other night. :o)
