Week 14

We are borrowing a computer.  So, you get a wee update written by the boys themselves.  Hopefully over the break I can knock out a more complete update for the first half of the year.  It's been awesome.  I'm really proud of all the hard work these boys are putting in.  This has been our best year yet!

P-Grade 4
I did two math lessons. I finished Night of Ninjas.  I learned if you put a stick in the ground, if it's six inches and it's got a shadow it's pointing East.  I did my quiz on Pirates Past Noon and Night of the Ninjas on Book Adventure.  I finished Science Experiment three.  We wrote what happened to every leaf, every day until 10 days passed. 

E-Grade 1
I find colors.  I color Math paper.  I color blocks.  I am writing my name.  I looked at maps.  I saw Seattle.  I saw Gig Harbor.  I see where we one time lived.  I saw where I went on boat and I saw killer whales. 

G-Grade 7
I did two math lessons and a test in math u see. I read 15 chapters of harry potter and the order of the phoenix. I learned about the ideas of newton and locke in story of the world. I learned a new concept in grammar called interrogative sentences. I did a summary on Tom Sawyer.

I wrote and practiced writing Gig Harbor.  I drawed catses.  I draw chopped down trees and a dead flower.  The season is fall.  I draw a h.  Me draw a helicopter.


Gibran


I learned multiplying fractions by fractions.  I learned how to make a fraction of a fraction.  I did a leaf experiment on how the leaves die over a week.  We learned about Newtion and his Ideas.  How he found out about gravity and dicscovered it.  We did an experiment showing us how no matter how heavy objects are if dropped at the same height they'll hit the ground at the same time.

Porter


I did two lessons in Math.  Skip counting by nines.  We looked at leaves.  Some of them shrunk, some of them curled up, some of them are dry.  Isaac Newtion he discovered gravity.  We took a basketball and tennis ball and we let go of them from the porch.  They flew down.  They landed at the same time.

We our now completely MAC less.  I'm not sure when I'll be updating regularly again.  But, I do hope it will be soon.
