WEEK 3

BIBLE/HISTORY
We continued the study of the character trait "Attentiveness." On Monday, the boys watched the Nature video again and they made magnifying glasses. We reviewed the trait daily. We also started our Proverbs study! Ryder's verse to memorize this week was the first part of Proverbs 9:10, "If you really want to become wise, you must begin by having respect for the Lord." Each morning we also did a devotional from "My Big Book of 5-minute Devotionals."


 READING/LANGUAGE ARTS
Ryder did Lesson 1 in All About Reading Level 3. He finished his alphabet handwriting sheets and made a scroll! He had several other cut and paste activities and some pages in his student notebook on short vowel sounds. This is review since he has already learned this in All About Reading, but the handwriting practice is great for him!







MATH
Ryder finished Lessons 3 through 6 in Horizons Math 1.
 
SCIENCE
The topic this week was "flowers." We read in our Usborne Science with Plants book. Ryder learned about the different parts of a flower, pollen, seeds, and helpful insects! We also studied seasons and Ryder made a book about all the different seasons.

ART
This week Ryder painted "Sheep" by Franz Marc with watercolor.
PRESCHOOL for MERCER
This week Mercer did the letter C. He loves doing school like his big brother!
