Homeschool15: Amazing Animals

Kyrie's unit folder

During this unit, we learned about the amazing diversity of animals that can be found in zoos & habitats around the world, while focusing on the diverse habitat of the rain forest. This unit serves as a nice bridge between our unit on the oceans and the proceeding units which will cover a variety of land-based habitats. Both kids learned about animal adaptations that help them to live in their unique habitats.

Degen continues with his alphabet study.

We also continue to add to his understanding of phonics.

A French activity in which Degen learned about animals and reviewed colors. 

Above & below are Degen's draw & writes for this unit.

Kyrie's unit folder

Kyrie is completing independent reading with follow-up comprehension activities, a continuation of the book studies we started over the summer.

Kyrie's writing project for this unit was an informative paper about the layers of the rain forest. 

Kyrie completed a country study about Saudi Arabia & other countries in the Middle East.

Kyrie has enjoyed this math worksheets that allow her to complete a drawing that goes with the math problem.

Each unit, we read & learn about a Bible story. This unit, we continued our series of stories about the Israelites and read about manna & quail. Kyrie completed the above activity as part of our discussion.

Kyrie's unit project was creating a diorama of the rain forest layers. 

Of course, Degen wanted to do just what Kyrie did and created his own rain forest diorama.
