'14/15 Week 30 Days 2 and 3

Two days of hard work. Yesterday, we were done with our school just in time to get ready for the Aggie baseball game. It was tons of fun for the family and Andrew's baseball team.
The fact that Andrew caught a cold and ended up with a raspy voice and a runny nose, was not fun. We are praying, he will be well enough to play on Thursday. 

If yesterday we did a number of hands-on projects with Saara, then today, we did a lot of reading. Saara started a book about Pasteur and his study of microbes. She also finished reading her reading practice book and will write another book report soon. Besides, Saara was very privileged today to be taken to her ballet practice by her daddy.
Because of Andrew's cold, I wanted to keep him indoors, and to keep him entertained, I found an old Disney movie based a book we read some time ago - Johnny Tremain. Youtube can be pretty amazing.


Science. Saara continues to learn about mirrors and reflections. Here, we made a square out of one toothpick.

We also made a kaleidoscope. It did not work.

We brought out the real thing.



Andrew finished studying his first ever biology book. It was a fun adventure.

LA. Writing a story about  Needle and Balloon.
