week 24 covid lock down week 4
Monday
Today we had a lot of fun. We tackled our regular school list but we also added some fun Easter food projects. We dyed Easter Eggs, made a carrot patch, and sent letters to family members.
The kids had their Science and History lesson together. We learned about Spartacus and watched the 1960's Spartacus movie. Then the kids tackled their individual work. When they were done they enjoyed playing outside with the new sidewalk chalk In the evening we watched the Disney Nature Movie on Penguins. We all loved it!
Today was our weekly day off of curriculum, but learning still happens in this house even when we're not doing curriculum. The kids painted rocks and then hid them all over the neighborhood. The kids also dyed popcorn kernels for a mosaic project for tomorrow. In the evening we watch the making of the Disney Nature the Penguin movie.
We talked about Ancient Roman Mosaics in history today and the kids assembled their colored corn kernels into mosaics. We have been talking about the muscular system in science and learned about the quadriceps today. Westin enjoyed his Easter themed math and cutting project and worked on his writing and reading. Caiden and Maddy worked on their other subjects too.
Friday
Maddy finished Wonder last night, which was a big deal. It was the first larger book she's ever read. So we celebrated with watching the movie. We talked about the first triumvirate of Rome today in history. We skipped science and Westin's lessons today because of the movie and we had to take Mike's car to the mechanic. Caiden and Maddy worked independently on math, reading, writing, cursive, and typing. I game Maddy her weekly spelling test today. The kids went outside to play even though it was cold.

I've been making sure the kids get outside for exercise and fresh air every day.
Maddy the reading rock star!
