A day filled with learning and fun.....

Today is Sunday and we are home sick. Samantha has a back cold so we stayed home from Church and ice skating. Its been a lazy and productive day if that is even possible. First Samantha played on the computer while I got supper into the crock pot. Then we did some school work....

We continued using bee's in our lesson....
Bee Math: we used bee shapes to count and do simple addition... If you had 3 bees and you add 3 more bees how many bees will you have? Samantha had fun doing this. Its so much easier to figure out when you have the objects in front of you. We are working on the number 9 this week so I then had her color a big number 9 then fill it with 9 bee's that she picked out of the 21 we had been using to do addition. She also did a work sheet writing the number 9 and picking out what group has 9 in it.



Before we even started doing our work I was trying to get the computer to play the radio station Klove. While I was doing that Samantha was drawing a picture. I was really impressed with her work. She showed me how she made the big person big since she was closer up to us and the other people small because they were so far away!



We are working on the letter J. So we did our usual worksheets with her writing the letter J in upper and lower case Jj. Then she had to pick out what pictures begin with J. Then she made a list of words that begin with J. She was so excited with this as she wrote them all herself. The only help I gave her was how to spell the words...
