HOMEWORK

Memory - Spend 10 minutes working on your memory verse


TODAY

Mondays are heavily loaded in specials classes.  I have the students for about an hour of class time.  This opens up the rest of the week for long, uninterrupted periods, which is great for class stability and structure!

Science -
For science, we watched an introductory video to kick off our science unit on the universe.  Here is the link:

I play all videos through safeyoutube.net.

When preparing for this unit, I watched another video that I found very entertaining, though it was somewhat lacking in the academics.  It's a virtual tour through the solar system.  Your child might find it interesting extracurricular viewing.  We will not be watching this one at school:

Math -
In math we discussed the four major mathematical operations: addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication.

We looked at the vocabulary (addend, sum, product, etc.) and created an interactive journal entry to go with it.
