This week we finished up Unit 13 – Jesus’ Miracles and started on Unit 14 – Jesus Teaches Others. We had a youth trip last weekend and Samuel stayed with Grandma and Gramps so we did half a week last week before he left, and then finished up this week before Thanksgiving.
We read about Jesus feeding the 5000, walking on water, the disciples seeing Jesus transfigured on the mountain, and about Jesus and the little children…
Samuel continued making progress in handwriting and his explode the code workbooks. His writing has improved greatly since the beginning of the school year. He even took it upon himself to make name cards to decorate our Thanksgiving table this year. He started to make menus too, but gave up after only making one. So Daddy and Nana made the rest…
Samuel finished learning Matthew 5:16…
and began learning Matthew 7:12 – In everything do to others what you would want them to do to you. This is what is written in the Law and in the Prophets.
Samuel has been doing a great job reading. He earned another free pizza this month through the Book-It program and was very proud of himself…
He is still working on subtraction in math. He had fun pretending to “shop” and figuring out how many items were left in the store…
We are both enjoying reading Danny Meadow Mouse for story time. We read about Peter Rabbit leaving the old Briar Patch to visit the peach orchard, and Samuel drew a picture of somewhere he had been – the movie theater…
Samuel had a lot of fun making bread after reading about Jesus feeding the 5000. I forgot to get pictures of the finished product, but we all enjoyed eating it…
He also enjoyed making a picture of the disciples’ boat in the storm. We used glue to make waves. When they dried, you could feel the waves as well as see them…
