Quentin and James started out the day playing with Playdoh.
Then Quentin worked on learning how to form the letter "A." .
He counted with pennies; completed addition and subtraction problems.
He also graphed yellow, red and green apples with Katie.
James worked on reading
Alex worked on Venn diagramming the differences between three animals. He is finishing up animal stories and is starting inanimate object stories. He completes reading, writing, copywork and dictation exercises with them. We have also started calendar stories.

A stop at Stam's Drug Store where they still make Chocolate Malts.
Going along with Quinny's "A is for Apple" theme, Katie made apple mouths with Quentin.
These easy snacks are made from two slices of apple smeared with peanut butter and covered with mini marshmallows. The apple slices form the lips with mini marshmallows for teeth.
Then we had them at an Apple Tea in which poetry was read and hot spiced cider was sipped instead of tea. |
