I am late posting what we did for weeks 4 and 5. We have a busy week and weekend ahead of us, so here is what we've been doing and what we have planned for the week. History Week 4: The Magna Carta and the Hundred Years War. Blaine colored while I read. Week 5: The Hundred Years' War, Joan of Arc, and the Plague (age appropriate discussions with some sword fighting play involved). Week 6: The Renaissance! Specifically, we are learning about Shakespeare, daVinci, Copernicus, and Michelangelo. I plan on elaborating a little on each of them throughout the week and coloring these as we go. I'm going to show Blaine this virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel. Something fun that I am planning on doing is taping some paper to the bottom of our junior size table and laying on our backs to draw and color. Geography: More puzzles! Week 4: European Rivers (printable) Week 5: European Cities (printable) Week 6: European Mountains (printable) English: Cut and paste activities each week. Week 4: Nominative Pronouns Week 5: Objective Pronouns Week 6: Possessive Pronouns Art Week 4: Abstract art. We classified things into 2 categories. Real or abstract. Obviously there are more categories than these 2, but for a 4 year old, these 2 will do for now. We took a field trip for a lunch date to see my oldest friend, Martine, and check out some artwork in both her condo and her gallery. Blaine said this one was his favorite. Week 5: Perspective I made this cut and paste and we talked about horizons, vanishing points, and shadows. We put the people on the sidewalk appropriately and shaded where their shadows would be according to the sun's position. Week 6: Final Project Week We combined the last 5 weeks of our fine arts skills and with his tutor's leadership, Blaine drew this owl mom and baby! I'm so proud of him! Math: Skip Counting Week 4: 7 and 8 Week 5: 9 and 10 Week 6: 11 and 12 Science: Every week we did some worksheets that I downloaded from C3. Week 4: Natural Cycles - Carbon and Oxygen, Water, and Nitrogen Week 5: Reactions to environmental change - Adapt, Migrate, and Hibernate Something funny I have to share... This week we talked about some funny things like how Daddy shaves his hair short in the summer because it is hot and how Paw Paw Chuck grows his beard out in the winter to keep his face warm. Week 6: 6 forms of pollution Latin Week 4: We repeated last weeks 1st Conjugation Imperfect Tense exercises (here) Week 5 and 6: 1st Conjugation Future Tense cut and paste (with handwriting practice)

Here are our plans and ideas for Classical Conversations - Cycle 2, Week 1... HISTORY SENTENCE It is pretty hard to find ideas and activities surrounding Charlemagne. Truthfully, I'm not going to worry about this too much. Week 1 will be our first week back to CC for Merrick, and the twins' first week in CC (they just turned 4). It will also be my first week as a tutor (eeeek!), so we will probably keep it simple. We will probably just end up borrowing some good books on Charlemagne from the library and reading those together. However, I do love some of the ideas displayed here at Cup of Tea blog: I may just have to get that Story of the World activity book this year! Charlemagne for kids Also, I think we are just going to HAVE to make a family timeline this year! I will not expect much from the kiddos on this one. I thought perhaps we can just add one person a week. There is some great info on how to do this (along with free printables) at Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood blog. SCIENCE We must, must, must build a biome in a bottle! How cool is this?!? Directions and more pics here. More biome resources: Biome worksheets on Enchanted Learning (requires a membership) World Biomes Pin Map (with free printables). Just glue the map to a piece of corkboard and use straight pins to place the biome cards. Oh.my.gooooodness! I just found this "Biome song" that uses Minecraft as the backdrop. Merrick will be soooo excited to see this! Another biome song written by a teacher. This one is very educational! GEOGRAPHY Youtube video of the Continents and Oceans song This is a great game we can play to learn the continents! Another good idea: make a map out of a Chinet oval plate (could do a paper mache globe as well, but this seems easier). Scoutie Girl thinks it would be awesome to paint an interactive map like this one: If we made this map, we could laminate the continents and names of the oceans and continue to play with it over and over again. I could even use it as a tutor at CC. ENGLISH Fun idea for teaching the 8 parts of speech (blog origin unknown) 8 parts of speech CC chant on Youtube Parts of speech posters ($2.50 at Teachers Pay Teachers) Other fun ideas: Marshmallow Catapult! Books to borrow from the library: The Minstrel in the Tower Books to Purchase: The Apprentice The Sword and the Tree Tales of Robin Hood That's it for now! I should mention...this is just a list of resources and ideas. We don't actually complete all of these activities. In a typical day, we have a Bible lesson, review the CC memory work, do phonics and math, and (perhaps) complete one craft activity or game that correlates to our memory work. We also spend time reading together. Merrick will be in the 2nd grade starting Fall 2013. The twins will be 4 years old. Aside from the Bible lesson, I do not expect any thing from the twins in regard to their formal education. If they choose to join us, they may. If they do not want to participate, they may play independently. I'm linking up to the Cycle 2 Weekly Link Up Page on Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood blog. It is one of the most helpful blogs there is for CC parents!
