Unit 8: DINOSAUR

We learned “Big and small, God made them all."
The letter is Dd


 Ryder has learned 39 sight words so far! 
 
These were our books this week.
 PHONICS
Ryder had several phonics and handwriting worksheets this week.






 
 MATH
Ryder finished up Lesson 100 in Abeka Math K.
 
SCIENCE/BIBLE
 MFW included a wonderful book in the deluxe package called What Really Happened to the Dinosaurs? by John Morris and Ken Ham.  It is a Christian book, explaining that the dinosaurs were created when all the rest of the animals were on day 6 of creation (in the Bible).  Did you know that a dinosaur is actually mentioned in the Bible?  Read Job 40. We talked about how some people believe that dinosaurs were on the ark, but just not adult-sized. A baby dinosaur would be much smaller and would need much less food to eat. 
Ryder loved putting together this dinosaur puzzle that I found in the $1 aisle at Target!


 He put together dinosaur bones to make the dinosaur. He is going "ROAR!" in this picture!
 He loved this activity!
 This week we studied about dinosaurs. We learned about 4 specific types of dinosaurs. He loves coloring, so he colored the dinosaurs!




 
Mercer enjoyed Play-doh and coloring this week!
 
MUSIC
This week the song was Bizet: Carmen Suite no. 2 ("Habanera"). Ryder thought it would be really fun to act like dinosaurs during this song!
