WEEK 9

BIBLE/HISTORY

The memory verse for this week was "A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control." Proverbs 29:11 Ryder practiced handwriting by writing out the Bible verse and he went over the verse daily. Each morning we also did a devotional from "My Big Book of 5-minute Devotionals." We started a new character trait that we will be learning and reviewing for the next 4 weeks. This month we are focusing on honesty. On Monday, the boys watched a nature story about the humpback whale and did a coloring sheet. The rest of the week we reviewed the definition of honesty.

 Ryder learned about where Jesus lived when he came to Earth (Israel). He drew a Bible Lands map and learned a silly sentence to remember the bodies of water. 

 READING/LANGUAGE ARTS

Ryder did Lesson 14 through 16 in All About Reading Level 3. He also had several handwriting and phonics worksheets. He did First Language Lessons Level 1 Lessons 19 through 23 and All About Spelling Level 1 Lesson 5.

 MATH

Ryder finished Lessons 27 through 32 in Horizons Math 1. He also got a 100 on his 3rd Math test!

 

SCIENCE
The topic was "Thunder and Lightening." We read the Usborne book: Things Outdoors and a read-aloud book. The boys also watched a Magic School Bus DVD about the weather.
