Behind again on the blog and so the kids' folders became a bit jumbled... so, here is their highlighted work for both April & May. We covered a lot of units in these last two months before summer, including: America, the Earth & conservation, space, transportation, sports, authors & artists, and summer fun & safety. I might be missing a few in there, but we learned a lot.
Of course, in addition to thematic units, the kids continued to work on their individual skills. For Degen, this includes basic math operations and reading (we wrapped up phonics and have been focusing on sight words). Kyrie continues to move forward in practicing more complex math skills and improvement of writing skills.
The summer has been a busy one so far, and the kids are having a lot of fun, which means they haven't been focused on lessons. There is still a lot of learning happening outside our usual classroom. The kids have enjoyed: tennis camp, French camp, international cooking camp, Shakespeare camp (Kyrie), circus camp (Degen), Hogwarts camp (Kyrie), junior science camp (Degen), and vacation Bible school. They have continued most of their extra-curricular activities over the summer, too.
