Week 11 - More field trips and Halloween

Our adpatation unit fit in nicely with a homeschool offered by the Audubon Nature Institute. For our first class, we got a special class at the aquarium, on a day it is usually closed to the public!




For our unit on European Exploreres, we made cork boats and had them enoucnter various weather calamities. Unfortunately none of our explorers made it to their final destinations!

Oscar continues with his class with the homeschool group at Big Easy Sportsplex. He loves PE, enjoyed cooking, but does not like Spanish (unfortunately). To be honest, the class seems a little boring, with not much hands on acitviites, and a lot of writing. Here's his work from one week, and I LOVE the accompanying drawings…


In line with Halloween and animal adaptations, we watched Magic School bus goes Batty, which is always a hit in Oscar's eyes.

Working on estimation jars for math, showed his skills for guessing again, getting REALLY close to the amount of candies in each jar. A few candy corns were in order for his hard work.
