Jewels & BOOM!

We began Unit 10 today...

Kate's Bible story was about Joshua leading the Israelites.

She decided to draw jewels on a skirt as part of her math activity today. :o)
Drew's memory verse for this unit is Psalm 118:1..."Oh Give thanks to the Lord for he is good, his steadfast love endures forever."

Drew made this art project to go with his history story about a boy on the Mayflower who got into the gun powder room, fired a musket and gave everyone on the boat a scare! This happened while the Mayflower was anchored off-shore during a day several men went ashore to try to find a place to settle.

He cut out a large oven, drew an X with a vertical line through it, then cut each line...He roll each triangle shape back to reveal an opening in the center.
He wrote "BOOM!" on the front of the red oval and then drew a scared face on a cotton ball to represent the scared boy who fired the musket resulting in an explosion.
He completed his math paper today that had 9 problems on it all 3-digit addition AND subtraction - some with regrouping and some without. He did a nice job with just a few errors that he was able to correct. :o)
