In Bible: We reviewed Noah's Ark. Our memory verse for this week is James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. We memorize one scripture a week. Read more about that here.
In Abeka Math: we reviewed multiplication, division, writing and reading long numbers.
In Spelling: We're studying the six types of syllables.
In PE: We spend 20 minutes moving. A few minutes of that is spent on a special locomotor activity. Our locomotor movements this week were jogging, hopping, skipping, and bearcrawling. ...Let me tell ya, it "aint" easy on the teacher either.
In History: We're studying Arkansas history, and interesting facts. She worked some more on her Arkansas book. We even learned some things about our own city that we didn't know.
In Art: We're studying color, and about how to use the primary and secondary colors.
In Music: We had piano, bass guitar, and drum lessons.
I guess my personal favorite this week was science...
In Science: We studied structural engineering. We built a bridge from paper, and discovered how the shape of material determines it's strength. Fun stuff!
