"God takes good care of me"
This unit Liberty studied the letter N. She learned about several different types of animal homes and then we focused on Nest. In the same way a baby bird's parents care for it while it is in the nest, God also cares for us. We attempted to make a bird nest out of spaghetti noodles and chocolate, but it was a complete disaster! I'm sure it would have worked fine if I had been prepared and had all the ingredients. Rule #1--always be prepared! Nevertheless, Liberty had fun making her own nest along with several other nest projects.
Bird nest in a tree
This week we read several books about bird nests and various other animal homes. My favorite was "A house for hermit crab" by Eric Carle.
After reading this book, Liberty made a book of her own called "A house for..." She thought of several different animal homes and illustrated them in this book.
She has been working so hard on her handwriting. Even though the curriculum only has her practice once a week, I make her do at least one handwriting page a day. She has improved SO much in just a few weeks. This is her letter N for this week. It's her newest letter, so she has some improving to do, however, the difference between today and Monday is significant.
I get her handwriting pages from http://www.handwritingworksheets.com/. It's a great place to make your own handwriting worksheets.
