We went through our regular classes with speed today :) the boy was excited about something new we purchased. I bought it on a garage sale site and it had to be meant for us because we had been talking about all the tornadoes in the south and what caused them and also how they worked. I will be posting our day backwards because this is more fun :D and now for pics.!
A tornado maker!! It came with a DVD that explained what tornadoes are, and also has 3 episodes of the show storm chasers. We had a blast. Caiden said the small red rectangles "debre" were semis and the yellow balls were cows. That's an Iowa boy for you :)
And now on to daily school work: language arts was lesson 3.6 past-tense verbs: was,were
math exercise 49 telling time. example the time is 10:40a.m. 3 hours later,it would be_______?
I like the ones that make him think LOL.
I let him read Beast Quest (REALLY good part). I guess it really doesn't matter what he is reading the point is to practice his oral reading skills. We did not do a chapter in our science book knowing most of the afternoon would be spent on tornadoes. Very off subject from our bodied; but the right time of year to be learning about them! For social studies we started a unit on Iowa we learned about the state bird, flower, and the year it became a state.I would like to learn about Independence as our next unit before we go global. :)
