13/14 Week 7 Day 5

I stayed up late last night cutting and folding and gluing together an awesome replica of the Israelite tabernacle. A wonderful website to find this easy printable craft is sundayschoolsources.com. 

Andrew continued to learn about the five senses. Yesterday, we read about how our eye works and he enjoyed some experiments with light so much, he wanted to repeat them again today. 
We also read about how our sense of smell works. This topic produced a lot of giggles when we talked about 'buggers'. But we were very serious when we discussed why it is so important to grab a tissue when we sneeze. 

We read a whole lot more today - in history, reading comprehension, vocabulary learning, reading practice. I am so thankful, that unlike yesterday, we had a lot of 'oomph' that kept us going and enjoying every minute of it.

Bible. The tabernacle.
 

Science. Andrew is wiggling his finger in front of the flashlight and watching its upside down image appear on the wall. That is how our eyes work.
