Week Three -- Fishing for Nouns and Singing About Snails

If there were any doubt that Schoolhouse Rock could stand the test of time, this noun song proved it (at least it did in our household). We've viewed it at least ten times and he's still asking to watch it again. (This, and song about interjections because a boy gets a shot in the rump and Little Bug found it vastly amusing.)

So with the noun introduction out of the way, we moved on to some real work. Liiiiike going jellyfishing with spongebob for nouns. Each jellyfish had a word. If it was a noun, it went in our "net".

Okay. Then we really did do some work throughout the rest of the week with nouns. 

We started our section on subtraction in math.

 Little Bug also started his reading and spelling lessons with Mrs. R. The lessons are fast-paced, but stretch that short attention he has which is great.

We built our own ocean model based off this tutorial to learn about ocean zones. There's more about that project here.  

 And for our character development this week, we followed this lesson from meaningful mama on patience. He especially liked the snail song.

And of course we made sure we had plenty of time to play.
