Back at home, we pulled out Georgia's softball equipment and practiced throwing and catching with a mitt. On Monday, Georgia had her first softball practice with the team.
This week, Georgia read the book Henry and Ribsy, and she read and organized her Weird 'n Wild Creatures cards.
She also played Age of Empires and learned about some of the ancient civilizations in the game. She's learned a little bit about the Minnoans, Hittites, Egyptians, Greeks, Syrians, Babylonians, and other civilizations from the game. She's also located their regions on the map.
On Tuesday she had gymnastics class, only one more to go until the end of the session.
This week she experimented with her magnets. She even magnetized a spoon by rubbing it with a magnet.
In math, she reviewed time, reading clocks, and the various terms that are used, such as, "half past", "quarter past", etc.
Georgia read some more of the AKC Dog Book. And the girls sculpted with play dough.
Olivia worked on some puzzles. Each puzzle had words on them. For example, the Human Body puzzle had a puzzle piece for the head with the word "head", and the vegetable puzzle had the name of the vegetable on the puzzle piece. We "read" the words together as she put the puzzles together.
Olivia also practiced writing with her white board. Georgia made up a couple worksheets for Olivia to practice writing her numbers and letters. It was cute. Georgia made the dotted outlines of the letters and numbers for Livy to trace, and had extra space for Livy to practice writing them on her own.
We were going to go to the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery on Friday, but Georgia was up late the night before with a sore throat. Both girls had not been feeling the greatest. So we postponed the trip until we feel better.
