Weekly Report

Well, another week has flown by! Here's some of what we did at Morning Glory Academy:

Canada - We studied the Prairie Provinces (Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba) this week. I designed a lapbook to go with our studies and it was a HIT!! Megan and Cassidy absolutely adored See Saw Saskatchewan and Eenie Meenie Manitoba. They almost have the books memorized! We also did really well on our quizzes in the Canadian Sites and Symbols books. Chelsea added more cities and sites to our map.

Art - We love Emily Carr!!! Maybe we'll just study her for the rest of the year. :D I read Discovering Emily to Megan and Cassidy (but Cassidy only half listened) and The Book of Small to Chelsea. We'll keep reading this over the next few weeks. Next week we might try painting but I'm NOT making any promises. :D

Cooking- This was a lot of fun! The pavlova was delicious and we've invited our New Zealand friends around for dinner and pavlova sometime. We also learnt about our country for the week, Australia. We read Australia, Australia and Outback Adventure Megan read some of this (YAY!!).

Latin - Chelsea got everything right on her Latin quiz!!

Spelling - This must be a good week for Chelsea, she aced her spelling test too!

Math - Math is great for Chelsea. :D She did lessons 4, 5 and 6 this week. The first Miquon book came yesterday. Today Megan did the first page which she liked, I think. :D I'm working on making a math fact CD. I think using this with Miquon would work really well for Megan.

Science - We finished reading Chapter 5 of RS4K Physics . No projects (I'm feeling in an anti- project mood) or supplementary books (I had a lot of trouble finding ones). But I don NOT want to be doing our full school curriculum in France. I'm taking some workbooks for the plane and educational books to read but there is no way we're going to be doing science experiments.
