Day 11

Monday's Activities:

  • Reading -
  1. ME read from Chapter 2 in Homesick. She and I discussed how the main character was treated as an American in China in the 1920s.
  2. C&C finished Rapunzel by Paul Zelinsky. We all swooned when the prince's eyesight was restored by Rapunzel's tears. We made text-to-world connections, especially regarding twins.
  • Explora Classes - Madelyn explored density and Catherine & Chloe explored circles. http://www.explora.us/en//programs/home%20school/
  • Arts & Crafts Class - The girls made beaded keychains this week.
  • Singapore Math - Madelyn only
  • Ballet II for Catherine & Chloe
An aside...

Ordering Happy Meals for six children at McDonalds is an exercise in combinations and permutations. If only we had enough time when ordering fast food to do a math lesson!
