It’s Math (and Music) 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!
Exploring Time
A fun fact sheet about time. We all giggled about the statement: “You can’t hear or smell time.” We tried!
Notebooking Time
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.
Setting a Schedule
Tori’s copy of our general school day schedule. Look how much free time if they complete their work!
Daily Schedule
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.

Decoding
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.
Musicians of the Sun
The girls pretended they were characters from the book, making a rainbow.
Making Music
Alex heard the cacophony and ran to join us!
Musical Kids
It was loud, obnoxious, gave me a momentary headache, but the kids loved it and will certainly remember this book!

Who knows when dinner will be?I love watching my son play baseball, despite the obnoxious parents loudly cussing at the umpires, abusive coach/parents screaming at their own kids, and boys who play 4 sports and don't really want to be here.This field complex has about a dozen domestic beers on tap and more drinks in cans and it cost $8 for me to enter.

    I love the idea of have your kids fill out their own schedule! Great idea for understanding time.

    How do you like Tapestries of Grace? We don’t use a packaged curriculum over here (yet) but this is definitely one that I would consider! Thanks for linking up to Trivium Tuesdays last week! Hope to see you again this week!

    Katie wanted to post her schedule in her bedroom. They really liked doing that!
    We love Tapestry of Grace. With 4 kids, it keeps me sane. I don’t use everything they have in their “box” every week, but it’s nice that it has options. I started with Story of the World, but it was only good for one round and we needed more. Glad I found Trivium Tuesdays!

    Thanks for your input on Tapestry of Grace! I’ve had people ask me what to do after Story of the World, so that is interesting that you chose that route. Right now I’m just reading history to my kids and doing activities to help them understand, but I can see the benefit of a more structured program once they get older! I look forward to hearing more from you in the future!
