Last week Austin worked on recognizing numbers in different ways.  I put out some coins and he would tell me how much they were worth.  Then he would show the number on his abacus and on place value cards.

 

Adelaide has a puzzle she likes to play with that has three bears on it that you can change their outfits.

Austin and Adelaide have been learning about stars and they did a 'glittery, starry night' picture.  First they put silver glittery stars on a black poster board I cut in half.

Then we added lots of glitter!

Then, after the glitter dried, they glued on glow-in-the-dark stars.

They have enjoyed having their pictures in their rooms at night although I got the stars at the Dollar Star and they only glow for about five minutes which is a little disappointing.

Adelaide has worked on this alphabet puzzle.

This weekend we went to a Civil War battle reenactment for the Battle of Westport.  The boys really enjoyed it!
