First Day of Distance Learning
We may be starting with Distance Learning but we still have to take a first-day-of-school photo!!
I remember what a milestone it was for Janie to start Kindergarten. Take a look at a comparison to her first day of K photo!! Both have the same cheesy excited smile. So cute.
After the photos, we all went back inside and hopped on their first Zoom class. Ms. Wells looks so nice and Peanut seemed to follow along just fine.
He made a First Day of Kindergarten crown and name tag just like Janie did!
Here he is wearing his gearn with the rest of the class.
This was Ms. Wells reading the class a story about Chester, their class mascot.
Here is Janie in her first class with Ms. Suzuki. She is an older and more experienced teacher with lots of rules and instructions. 3rd grade is a big jump from 2nd grade! What’s nice is that Janie’s old classmates from Ms. Bliss’ class are all back together again!
Staying Busy
These kids have been staying busy by doing more worksheets…
being silly…
and re-discovering their toys after being away for 2 months.
Writing
Reading and Writing
We are back to the reading book! We started it a few months ago but stopped for a while. There are 100 lessons and we will finish it eventually.
Car Snack
This morning, Peanut insisted that I go to the store to buy the following things: apples, grapes, and peanut butter. He said he wanted to make the cars he saw on a video.
So he made his own video. Woudn’t it be great to be able to make millions off this kid?!
I cut up the apple and set up the materials and he went to work all on his own.
He said “See Mama, it’s a car snack!” So cute.
Homework
Peanut did his reading and writing homework today.
He also took a long nap. Homework is exhausting.
Cracking Eggs
Peanut has mastered a new skill: cracking eggs into a bowl. He helped make a lemon tart with Mama today and cracked all the eggs and loved using the whisk to mix it all up.
Here’s the final product!
Birthday Card
It’s almost Janie’s birthday and Peanut wanted to make her a card. We used a YouTube video to learn how to draw her favorite animal, a giraffe.
He also wanted to make a cupcake and lollipop for her so that’s what he did.
Drawing Lesson
The kids started another drawing lesson this evening.
They learned how to draw different kinds of birthday cake.
