Lots of things have happened this past two weeks that have made it difficult to blog what all we have done education wise with our kids. I will recap the last two weeks here.
My mom and sisters came to visit and the kids had a great time with them. The kids read to them, showed off their counting abilities and other tid bits of information they know. We took the kids to ValleyFair while we were in the cities with my family. We have had the kids read almost everyday. They are participating in the summer reading program at the library. We have been having the Amara practice her ABC's and both girls writing sentences. We have been working on spelling and reading the dolch words as well. Michael has been working with Amara everyday on counting to 100. Is is finally able to do so all by herself. We have been working on different types of math (measurement, fractions, addition, subtraction). We are also asking them to tell time several times a day. The kids are helping Michael keep an eye on the veggies in the garden. Our strawberries are starting to ripen and the spinach is flourishing. We have been practicing the names of the bones in the body and are learning about exoskeletons as well. We have been watching Mythbusters, which the kids find fascinating. The amount of science info that can be learned from that show is never ending. They have spent a lot of time playing with their friend next door. We have been discussing religion a lot lately. Almost everyone we know is Christian so we have been discussing why people believe in Gods and what the different types of of religions are.
