MFW K: I-i Insect


Eric Carle inspired paper firefly.

We are late on the insect books, but Baby Sis watched the old Disney Grasshopper and Ants video.

These weeks she practiced more on her writing and reading too.

I am late with the ants too...I really should get that going.

  1. I really love your blog! It reminds me to keep life playful, simple, and with our focus on Jesus. When I need inspiration, it always helps. I am a long time user of MFW. I have an 11 year old boy and a 9 year old girl. We are finishing up CTG slowly through the summer (intermingled with lots of summer “interruptions”, i.e. FUN) and will hopefully begin RTR in the fall. I have shared your blog with other MFW users who also love it! I noticed you have not blogged in awhile. I hope you will continue! God bless your sweet family!

  2. I would also love to hear advice on how you complete things “on time”. We always run over into summer.

Online Resources: Sesame Street Games

I love the Sesame Street Games ...I think they are the best for preschoolers. They teach important concepts, at the same time, making computer skills real easy. For eg, there is no "click and drag"...that's hard for them...there's "click" "move" "click". There are some games Ian really likes...(click on photo for the games) That's the Wheels on the Bus song (you press the keys foe interactive movements) Patterns. Seasons. Fun for the kids. Walking the dogs...numbers. This is alltime favorite. First you make a pitcher of lemonade. Then depending on how many monsters come, you click however many cups. I love it!

Science 2015/2016: Human Body Recap

We really had fun learning about the Human Body this year. I thought it would be meaningful to consolidate our learning. We enjoyed the Body Book more than I thought we would. I did do most of the cutting though. We also enjoyed the different videos we watched and the experiments. I think this is the most successful science year yet. The five senses Tongue the Ear The Skin The Eye Skeleton Joints Long Bone Tooth Brains Spinal Cord Digestive System Stomach The Lungs The Heart The Urinary System The Muscle Look through all our experiments and videos here .
