Finishing up word family work


Word family sorting center with moving trucks and boxes

Here’s the word family word wall this week.
The girls were really tickled by the base word “crab.”
They said he was an evil crab and he did look rather vicious.
Katie working on her Proverb copywork.
That child will take forever to do something she doesn’t want to do.
And it was done poorly and out of order when all was finished.
How do you copy the words all haphazardly? sigh

Morning work math page with fractions and even/odd introduction

Both girls enjoyed the jellybean math.
I gave them each a cup of Starburst jellybeans (cuz they’re the best!)
They sorted them by color and tallied them up and made patterns with them.
Then we ate ‘em.
I’ve never seen anyone so excited as when their Apologia Zoology 3 Junior Notebooks arrived in the mail Monday afternoon!
They’ve almost completed lesson 1. I think they will get to be more fluent readers and writers from this activity alone since they love it so much!

Last week, Tori started her first season of track and field now that she’s 6.
Honestly, she could have begun at age 4 if they’d have let her. She loves it.
Here are her awesome track shoes, cuz when we do something, we need new shoes, do I hear an “amen”?
I’m sure they make her run faster and better.
She had her first practice last Thursday and she’s actually disappointed that they only practice twice a week.
They stretched and ran relays and played duck duck goose. I think I will supplement the practices with some runs at the park on the other days because I know she can run a mile without any effort. That’s my girl!
We have a 2.5k in May at Ogden Nature Center.
