Marbles, self-portrait, & pots

We had a good day today!

After singing through the first two verses of D's hymn that we're currently studying (Our God Our Help in Ages Past) and talking through the meaning again, D said, "That's just like a safe house.  God is our safe house!"  He was referring to what we talked about earlier in the week.  I love to see this understanding and application of what he's learning not only academically but spiritually as well!

D drew the planets to size using a compass for the first time.  He also learned the Transit of Venus will happen THIS June! He is so excited about it...guess I better start praying for good weather!

He did a great job on his vocab words. I love his stick people pictures!

He built a fun marble run from his wooden set.

K did her self-potrait and then inside the pic we wrote words that describe her. At one point she said her picture wasn't good...meaning it didn't look like her usual stick figures. I think she did a great job!

Lil' C found her workbook all by herself and got out her crayons to do her "School" too! :). I am amazed at how well she stayed near the lines! I was busy helping K while she was coloring.

K enjoyed marching around celebrating the ark of the covenant to go with her Bible story. We were all marching with her!
