First Grade (week 17)

We had a rather short week, only 2 actual school days. With a field trip, co-op and a sick day.  So, we'll have to finish up what else we had planned at the beginning of the upcoming week.


Lego Club - this month they have a lesson a day, like a lego club advent.

Our ornaments this week - we learned about the history and symbolism of candy canes and poinsettias!
  

He also did a writing words game from 3Dinosaurs.com House for Hermit Crab printables, I hung words from the book around the house, and he went around with a clipboard and matched the word with pictures ad wrote them.

He read:
Picture of Story of Hanukkah  YR1
For science we studied crustaceans - more on that on Tuesday's Out in Nature post.

We watched:
Living Scriptures - Joseph in EgyptJoseph's Reunion and Moses  all of which coincided with our History Lessons.

We also attended a live Nativity Scene and did some caroling, and went looking at Christmas lights as part of our Christmas lessons, but I didn't get any good pictures (since it was night time).
