Week 28

 As children of God we are somebody. He will build us, mold us, and magnify us if we will but hold our heads up, our arms out, and walk with him.

-Marvin J. Ashton

Exploring Technology- Kiwi Crate Paleontology

Social Studies- J studied the judicial branch. For fun we watched the original 12 Angry Men. Fun fact, all but 3 minutes of the movie was filmed in one 16x24 room.

J also explored a little about presidential campaigning on icivics.org We just learned they have a new elementary unit helping kids to think like historians.  

Math- J did a review and A has been working on adding and subtracting multiple digits.

Science- Canyon Country Discovery Center

PE- Toss and catch, tag, bouldering

Arts and Crafts- Making Valentine boxes and book marks.

"A" also created Minecraft art on the white board

LA- More with the apostrophe- possessive nouns. And learned when to use "a" vs "an".

Stay Curious- Was is the most recent animal to go extinct that we know of?

We couldn't find a definite answer, but last year multiple types of frogs, fish, and snails were declared extinct. Panda.org estimates around 200-2000 species go extinct every year. 

Javan Rhino is one of the closest mammals to extinction with only 60-75 known rhinos left.

Played in sand.

The cat joined us for bubbles.

We also played toss and catch.

A2 got more fine motor in by decorating her box with every sticker she could get a hold of.
