Week in Review – July 16th

preschool corner

Our week in pictures:
Spelling:

Playing with homophones


Spelling - before FIN became FUN!

Science:

Touching Horseshoe and Spider Crabs


We observed a praying mantis on our house.


Tornado Boy predicted a hurricane would hit Colorado

Physical:

He built a pyramid - then took a rest

Practical:

He worked on cutting and taping

Playtime:

He built several big Lego buildings with Tornado Dad

Legos have really given me hope. Tornado Boy and Dad are playing with them nearly every night for very long periods of time. They made a tower that was nearly 5 feet tall the other night. Tornado Boy was on a ladder to put on the finishing touches. I’m really thrilled that he’s found something that he will pay attention to for long periods of time. He’s growing up!

To see what other families are up to this week – hop on over to Homeschool Creations.

    I’m jealous of your school area. I realize I could probably have similar if I applied myself, but that would require so much follow through.

    And awesome Lego creation, mine will play for hours with it too.

  2. Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I don’t deserve that much credit, Ticia. A couple of those are shots from a museum. :)

    I am glad that TB has so much exposure to learning activities outside his home, but this Lego house is fantastic. Obviously, you have now two Lego enthusiasts in your house :)

    I’d rather a hurricane hit Colorado than here! I’m in Southeast Texas and we have been hit with 2 major hurricanes in the past 5 years (I don’t ever remember having to evacuate as a child). So, I’m liking his forecast!
    Awww…I remember playing with Legos as a child. I would love for my 3 year old to be able to play with them, but we’ll have to wait…my almost 1 year old would eat them!
