Week 29

    So this week we finished our lessons on  rocks. We made crystals, we made the rock cycle, and we ate our science experiments. We also spent some time learning about famous and historical African Americans. We talked about the Underground Railroad and Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks and the Civil Rights Movement, we even discussed Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong.
    Jr bug learned about the letter J and how J is the first letter in his name. We also finished counting from 1-10 and we did lots of stamp work with our numbers. A very slow week we had, but we did get our lessons taught and learned.
Here are some snapshots from our week. They were excited to learn so much this week.

Tater was "Harriet Tubman" and took us on an Underground Railroad journey. She had to read to clues to get us from one clue to the next. A great lesson in learning how to read, social studies, mapping, and p.e.
