Tuesday 9th June.

Well things have been manic here for the last few days. My mum has been in haspital for an operation so i've been running here, there and everywhere.
Though we've still managed to get some learning in.
In English we've finished reading Despereaux. Chloe's nearly finished answering the questions in the unit i madse to accompany it. We've also been do a HUGE spelling test. Just to see which words she can spell and which ones she's struggling on. Though she is a very good speller. But it has alrady highlighted a problem - words that sound the same but are spelt differently. For example fair and fare. She can spell both of them but i would just like to cover this in one of our lessons.
In maths we've been going over the times tables and also working on graphs and charts from the book.
We've done alot work on our science lapbook. It's lookin GREAT. Chloe's made several mini books 1) The animal kingdom 2) What is a mammal? 3) Mammal orders. 4) Echidna mini book. 5) Platypus mini book. 6)Marsupials. And the one she is currently working on Koala mini book.
She's wrote them all up on the computer and added pictures etc and they look really professional.
We've not done any work on history. Though we have been reading Wolfbrother which is set in the stone age.
