Math: Saxon Lesson 93 focused on learning to count quarters. We practiced several examples before working through her Guided Class Practice A and B. Her work also includes a spiral review, so she was tasked with counting coins (pennies, dimes, and quarters), finding fractional parts, drawing pictures to show three-digit values and then writing in expanded form, finding lines of symmetry, and subtraction of two-digit by two-digit numbers. ELA: For grammar study today, Sadee marked all of the words in a 25-word chart as noun, verb, or adjective. She did a great job, scoring 24/25. Next, she worked on her Language textbook activity which tasked her with changing the y to I and adding -es, writing the names of people in her family, writing a sentence about her family, and using pictures to help complete sentences. Once we got started in her book, Dinosaurs Before Dark, we just couldn’t put it down! We read chapters 6 -10 today to finish the book! We alternated pages in our read-aloud making predictions, discussing the events, and analyzing the actions and feelings of the characters along the way. Additionally, we discussed several verbs as we read, such as inched, charged, teetering, and tingle. We also worked to read with expression by raising our voices with a question mark. Sadee wrote in her comprehension packet after each chapter and began taking a full book assessment that she’ll complete in a later session. She did a fantastic job with this book and we have a few remaining follow-up activities for further study to complete. Bible: Sadee recited her memory verse and completed a fill-in-the blank version for extra practice. We then read I Samuel 8 – 10 about Saul, the first king of the Israelites who was chosen by Samuel.
