Today, Georgia worked on some multiplication in her math workbook. She also did a worksheet on syllables, and on plural nouns. We read through the list of rules on plural nouns, and the exceptions.

Georgia explored a website on Canada, reading about the early explorers, native animals, the flag, fossils, etc. She then explored the Time For Kids web site on Canada. (from Time magazine) There she read and saw photos of famous places in Canada, a history time line, and she took a quiz called the "Canada Challenge". The Time For Kids site had a passport to print out. After reading about a country on their web site you can print out a stamp to glue in your passport. Georgia is excited about reading on the other countries and collecting their stamps as well.

And of course, she visited the National Geographic site and printed some more animal sheets before getting off the Internet. I believe today it was the wallaby, gray and red kangaroos, mountain lion, and a slue of other ones.

Tonight, Georgia finished reading Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and started reading Ramona Forever. She's almost through the Ramona series.
