Week 23

   This week we learned about the MUSCLES. We made muscles left and right. Did you know that the body is composed of 3 types of muscles: the cardiac, the smooth, and skeletal muscles. We learned about all 3 parts and how they work together in the body.
   We also finished Our America social studies book. So now we are going to do some badge work in Social Studies for American Heritage Girls. I can't believe we finished our book. We have learned a lot in learning about symbols of America, the great Americans who created and established America, and why America is the greatest nation in the world. So now we are going to go global and learn about other countries and other things that can consciously affect us as a nation.
   We also finished up our work with writing letters. Tater's favorite character is Doc McStuffins, so this week, we wrote a letter to Doc. Its a very cute letter that she came up and that has all 5 parts of a letter. We then sent it off to Doc McStuffins. I don't know if we will get a letter back, but just in case we do, it will be a great experience for the girl.
Jr Bug learned about the letter D. He can now verbally see, and say the sounds of 5 letters. He's still working on his number, colors, and letters, but he's leaping by the bounds for learning. I think we are finally settling on a rhythm, and I think its only going to get stronger as we go a long.

So that's it. We have completed another week. It goes by so fast. I am so amazed that we are able to get so much done in only 5 days. See you next week.
