Week 5

   We are one week away from a break. One week!!!! This week we learned about the rain forest. We learned about love and we learned about Celilo Falls and the letter E. A fun, jungle like adventure that we had.
   Tater spent time learning about sentence structure. She passed her unit test with a 99%. We also learned and studied math. We are still struggling with math, so we are going to switch it up.We ae stating to work on Khan Academy. We will see how much better she does with the basics and hopefully we can move a bit faster.
   Jr Bug is learning about the letter E. He also started on Khan Academy. I am excited to see how well he does. I like the fact that Khan Academy has a Preschool/Kindergarten program.
   Both kids leaned about the rain forest, and even got to make their own rain forest this week. They also learned about rain forest animals, and the layers of the rain forest.
   Both kids are still learning about love. We have one more week to learn about love, and then we will move on to another Fruit of the Spirit.
   Below are some highlights of our week.

We talked about what real love looks like. We discussed that Love is meeting the needs of others. We compared it to a person being hingry and us giving them a rock to eat. How love equires you to truly meet the needs of others. I compaed it to Fruit Loops. The fruit loops taste like fruit, but its not real fruit. The same with love. It has to not only look like love. but be REAL as well. So then I had the kids write the word love with the fruit loops.

The best part of working with fruit loops is eating fruit loops. 

See, a great week. See you next week.
