'13/14 Week 29 Day 1

Friday of last week ended up being our catch-up day. The next day was Little League's opening day and we, as parents and coaches, had many last minute things to take care of. 

History. Andrew entered the Seven Years War. A lot was going on in many places and it was a rather big chapter to digest.

Science. Revisiting the rainbow with the help of the Magic School Bus.

LA. Somehow our journey along the yellow brick road is going rather fast. Saara retelling me today's chapter.

The Opening Day mayhem. Just a glimpse at the photo shoot in the morning.

New week has begun with lots of activities. Baseball will, of course, dominate, but we will also have Saara's ballet and the kids will finish their choir season with a concert on Friday. 

Today, for Andrew the BIG thing happened in math where he moved on to solving equation problems, i.e. finding the missing variant 'n' in an addition problem. 

Andrew also had a intense review of the Seven Years War and the French Indian Wars in America. Things get more and more exciting as we get closer to our time.

Bible. We started tracking all the 12 disciples - when and who started following Jesus.

LA. The "Oz" characters reached the field of poppies. Saara made a field of her own.

During the breaks, the kids practiced hard for a magic show that they gave at the end of the school day. It was hilarious.
