'13/14 Week 4 Day 4

I woke up this morning to Andrew and Dad having their breakfast and noses in Andrew's history book. Andrew was looking at the pictures and telling Dad all the things he had learned from that book. It was nice. 

Even the corralling I had to do to keep both kids' attention on our studies today, was nice. They had so much to add and share about our subjects that it was a miracle we got our schoolwork done. 

Not really. :)

Science. Saara finished filling in her wind chart today and moved on to studying plants. First things first - we learned about the soil ...

... and what makes the soil.

Andrew continued learning about the human body. The video of the day - our blood and heart.

This was different. Watching your pulse by watching the toothpick wobble.

Art. Andrew and Saara learned about geometric and organic shapes. So, they made some honeycombs for geometric art ...

... and some leaf rubbings for the organic shape art.
