Week in Review December 5-December 9

I really don't have many pictures for this week. We decided to take a little break and just do MFW K for the middle two, math and reading for Caroline, and focus on doing a fun Christmas unit study so we decided to do the Christmas lapbook from A Journey Through Learning among some other things I already had.

The middle two are working on learning U (U-U-Us) so in addition to the letter sound, we've also learned about the senses and a little bit about the human body. It's been a fun week!

In our Christmas unit study we have done some logic puzzles including a Christmas picture Sudoku, picture puzzles for the middle two, learned the history of gingerbread men and the advent calender, and discussed family traditions. Caroline has also started making a book doing copywork from A Visit From St. Nick and illustrating it. She has been really creative with her illustrations.

This has nothing to do with school, but I love how sweet these two are together.
