This week we did Cleopatra & Mark Antony.
Now while they actually did end up with some writing, you know what I think? Outlining lends itself to producing much better work. So while I like the interactive notebook thing, yeah, outlining does a superior job of teaching writing. It just produces more, much more, I think. So on that, I might go back to some mind mapping and transfer that over to an outline and see what we can get out of that. Just some thoughts there.
The girls did a *little* more Greek.
Hats abounded.
More free time free styled drawings.
An activity for one of the girls.
I also got the girls to check out this months calendar and fill in the numbers for it.
Another activity for a girl one day.
Another add on activity throughout the week.
This week I get to show you Hannah's work. She totally aced this activity this week! Yay!! But the proof will be in the pink pudding test booklet though. :o)
Now while Hannah will write out her spelling words I am often finding a bunch of scribbles with them. I find her drawings ALL OVER the place.
Hopefully by the time she's 9 her work will look more along this line.
Our gorgeous little Noah.
Phebe saying hello. :o)
This week I'll be joining up with:
I hope you'll join us.
Thanks for visiting.
Your boy is cute! I have yet to try out interactive notebooking myself. My kindergartener hates the cutting and gluing that's why I've been holding off. Hannah seems to be progressing well with her vocabulary! I struggle to teach vocabulary to my 2nd grader! It's amazing how you can homeschool your girls with a newborn. Hats off to you!
