BIBLE: We continued our study of John 1:29 this week. We read scriptures from John 3:16-17, Isaiah 53:7-8 and verse 4, 1 Peter 1:18-19, 1 John 1:5-9, and Revelation 5:7-14. As you can see, we had a lot of discussion this week on Jesus and Passover.
Bible Activities: Caleb created a lamb from cotton. He filled in the shape of his hand with cotton balls. It was done in honor of our memory verse. I have to say it's rather cute.
SPELLING: Another week, a new list of words. :)
ENGLISH: Caleb had some heavy writing this week in English. Lots of copy work and writing answers to questions. One of our topics this week was on mice. A little different but we laughed our way through it.
Reading List:
Baby Duck and the Bad Eyeglasses, Amy Hest
Lentil, Robert McCloskey
Johnny Appleseed, Steven Kellogg
The Story of Johnny Appleseed, Aliki
Read-a-Loud: We are quickly coming to the end of Farmer Boy. It has been a long book, but I've come to realize just how good a book it really is. Caleb has absolutely loved it and doesn't want to come to the end of Almonzo, the main character. I neglected to mention the book in my last post and how much he's enjoyed reading it.

HISTORY/STATE STUDY: We always love it when we get to read out of our American Pioneers and Patriots book and this week we were able to do that for three days! Yay! The stories are always so fun and interesting. Even Caleb likes it when I pull out that book.
Our state to study this week was Ohio. Did you know? - that it's illegal in Ohio to catch a mouse without a hunting license? (Seems silly, but it's probably a very old law that was set in place at some point in time. Ha!)
A small activity we did was to "make" a New England Primer, which would be a book that a young child would use at school. There was a worksheet supplied for us, we just glued it together and went over it.

SCIENCE: Our topics this week included more on the study of Animals. Can't really go wrong with that. A fun and diverse topic. We talked about animal homes, how some have babies from an egg and some are born as mini versions of momma and daddy, how some animals find food, and where other animals like to hide.
MATH: Lots of lessons in our Singapore Math book this week. We are coming near the end of the first book. That's exciting.
Educating in Christ,
