It’s Math (and History) Monday

We completed Life of Fred Apples. Our Singapore Math unit is about telling time.

I found some supplemental materials for them. The pack we worked on the last couple days is from School Express. You can sign up for emails and get a unit each week. I rarely use them, but this one seemed fun. They’re mostly puzzles and busy work.

wow, I think Katie was excited to do this time pack!

A fun fact sheet about time. We all giggled about the statement: “You can’t hear or smell time.” We tried!

Katie filling in our school day schedule. I wrote the items on our board after we discussed the order of our day and the girls copied it at the appropriate times on their pages.

Tori’s copy of our general school day schedule. Look how much free time if they complete their work!

Cross curricular activity: decoding letters for Tapestry of Grace Year 2, Unit 2 history.

We read a Max Lucado story and completed the puzzle for the symbolic Bible verse represented in the story.

The girls really enjoyed the puzzle and begged me to find more code games for them!

Then we read Musicians of the Sun for history and had to dance and make music. Music is math.

Just look at the gorgeous colors and fun shapes in this book! Art is math too.

The girls pretended they were characters from the book, making a rainbow.

Alex heard the cacophony and ran to join us!

It was loud, obnoxious, gave me a momentary headache, but the kids loved it and will certainly remember this book!
