'14/15 Week 21 Day 2

This day started out with a math test which both kids did very well at. They were so happy and pleased and proud of their work. The rest of the morning was taken up by science classes. Saara learned about things that mix well with water and things that do not. She had lots of fun experimenting with different foods from our pantry. Andrew added two more tropisms to his vocabulary - geotropism and hydrotropism. We prepared two more jars with radish seedling to illustrate these new concepts.

For two days in a row, children have been watching a road repair crew work on our road. They recognized and named a few machines they had learned about in the book.
