85 in January!






This week we had several good days. So we took our learning outside. Shelby read books outside, we went on nature walks and checked out the ducks at the ponds. We also just got OUTSIDE to play. It felt so good to not be cooped up all week.

Shelby is getting much stronger at some physical skills that she has had trouble with in the past. She is swinging on her own now and can go pretty high. She also was able to push the petals on her Big Wheel bike. Now if I can just get her to ride her regular bike.

We are paying for it this week considering the "Cedar Fever" going on but we still had fun.

Shelby did great on her spelling list last week. She got one out of 16 wrong. After her list this week we will review 40 words for next week.

Our attitude last week was selfishness. Not sure how much sunk in but Shelby did read a few books to me about it and we discussed solutions when she is feeling selfish.

We also continued on our Math journey of Place Value and entered the thousands. Another topic we touched is measurement in inches. She really enjoyed measuring things with her ruler.

We have finished our Geography unit on directions (compass Rose) and started City/State and National Maps.
