Working Long Weekend Day 1 : Atomic Model

A full-packed day we had. . . reading. . . activities. . . and tests. . .


Bible was about Abraham and Isaac. 

Language Arts was about finishing off spelling noun plurals and suffixes lesson . 

Science, on the other hand, was about atoms and molecules. H₂O . . . CO₂ . . . protons, neutrons, electrons, atomic numbers. . .

A clever way of making an atomic model. . . pins & pin cushion

!

 . . . and accidentally, an advance study on food preparation for TLE and our extra Homeroom lesson.

All because Gia got hungry =)

Tomorrow is yet again, another learning day for us. . .

 Just in case some of you still have doubts about homeschooling, or has misconceptions about it, let me share this very appropriate image. . .

Enjoy the long weekend everyone!

Because it is raining. . .

Decided not to do anything outside, today. The rain was just unstoppable. 

With the unpredictable weather, we decided to stay home the rest of the day.  "Curled up" as we catch up on our homeschool backlogs.

Planning to cook our lunch myself, but Gia decided to "help" me. She ended up cooking it, instead.  TLE/Homeroom activity alert!

I just love it when you get to have  a chance to enjoy learning while doing simple housework. :)


After lunch,  we finished the following Science backlogs on Unit 1 -- Taxonomy:

. . .our identification of our ref magnet collection (in photo, bottom), flowers (in photo, top), and dogs (not in photo) using dichotomous key...

. . . and our "field work" - - - identifying our garden plants by scientific name, family, genus, species and common names. . .

What a fun, fun way to spend a rainy, lazy Sunday at home. . .  :)
