Math Skype lesson. Student has a copy of the 1st grade math book so she can work together with teacher on Skype lessons. Gracyn is currently working on Unit 14 of the 1st grade book and is practicing measurement and estimating with inches, feet, centimeters, cups, gallons and other units of measure.
Today Gracyn took her spelling test. She did amazingly! She got her bonus word "baseball" correct! She missed the words off and us..but when I asked her to look at them again she was able to self correct the words. In writing she wrote two quality sentences about the play date she had yesterday with her friends. We also completed a cute spring worksheet where we had to see how many words we could make using the letters in the word "spring fun." In reading I read her "Six Hogs on a Scooter" out loud. She then had to complete a response sheet. She had to label the author, title, describe her favorite part, and whether or not she would recommend the story. In Bible, we watched 3! Bible videos! She enjoys the Beginner Bible movies. Today we watched Jonah and the Whale, David and Goliath, and Daniel and the Lions Den. At the end of each movie I asked her questions about the movie and how God used each of the men to serve him and to share God's love. We called today our Bible Fun Friday!
