Scientist of the Week

Andrew was our #1 Scientist this past week. The kids loved this one! They predicted it would fly, glide, spin, twirl, and/or drop to the ground. Each time he tried throwing one, it did a different thing.

Andrew wore the goggles to protect himself from these flying straws :) 

The kids wanted him to do it again and again.

That was so fun! Thanks, Andrew!

Scientist of the Week

 

What a cute scientist!

Zoey was our scientist the week of Valentine's. She did a whirling twirling experiment with a heart and a smiley face on different sides of a card. It was cool how our eyes took a picture of both when she turned it and we saw a smiling heart! It was perfect for Valentine's Day!

 

 Thank you, Zoey! Great job!

Valentine's Day

We had a fun Valentine's Day 

(and I actually remembered to take pictures)!

 

Here we are passing out Valentines.

You can see lots of balloons from the Valegrams.

  

  Everyone brought cute and original Valentine boxes.

  

Here we are opening and reading our Valentines.

  

 

After opening and reading our Valentine's Day cards, we had a yummy treat! 

Thank you everyone for your help in having such a special day.

Spelling Practice

I am so excited for this awesome website I found for practicing spelling. It is called Spelling City. I have added a link to it on the Links To . . . section of the blog.

All you have to do is "copy and paste" the whole list that I put on the blog each week, and paste it into the list section of Spelling City. (It only shows space for 5 words, but if you look underneath those 5 spaces, and click on "batch entry", you can paste the whole list at one time. It's fast and easy!)
Then have your child click on test me, teach me, or play a game to practice their spelling words. How fun and how easy is that? I hope you try it!
