Weekly Report, Week Two

Wednesday: We don't have any pictures from today, but we didn't have bible study because it is Spring Break, so we went to the park with some friends, then we came home and he did his reading words and read his story. We did have time to read Arkansas this morning during breakfast. I do have a picture of the reading words, but I'm not adding it until I have more pictures to download. Wednesday's are our slowest days, and tomorrow we get to do art... yay!!
Tuesday: We read Amelia Bedelia, Ants, and Baby's Book of Animals. We didn't have time to read a lot today because we had to get to our "outing" today. Price liked the Ant book, and neither of us liked Amelia Bedelia very much. It was crazy! We went to a Spring Break show at the library in Fountain. It was fantastic even though we didn't get to stay the whole time. Wesley was a little crazy... I had to chase him around the whole time, but Price laughed as loud as he could! I loved seeing him enjoying something so much! Our science experiment today was "fog in a bottle". It kind of stunk because it didn't work. I'm sure I did something wrong, and Price didn't seem to care that it didn't work. Maybe we'll try it again later this week. We got new books today that were going to be part of his Kindergarten curriculum, but one of them seems super easy, so I let him do a page today. We're going to go slowly and just do two pages a week. When K starts, we'll do two pages a day, four days a week. This is Book A, and we also bought Book B today. The only one left is Book C, and then he will move to the numbered books.. i.e. Book 1, Book 2, etc...
Monday: We didn't have colored eggs for breakfast this morning. We worked on our phone number and address. He repeated them after me, but then he said they were too hard and he wouldn't know them later. We'll probably work on them again next week if he doesn't have them by the end of the week. We read Atlantis, The Last Empire which took longer than I thought, but we're going to watch the movie tonight, so I wanted to finish it. Price really liked it. Then we cut out letter A words and glued them on our A project page. We tried the rice again this week because Price said if we would just push the rice harder, then it would stick. He was right, and our A looks really good. He did his word reading for today, and then we all took a break for lunch and read more books. We read Animal Parade, Atlantis Squarepantis,
All the Ways I Love You,
and Ten Apples up on Top. We read the first chapter in our new Winnie-the-Pooh book, and I think I liked it a lot more than Price. It was probably too long, so we're only going to read half of the chapter tomorrow unless he asks to keep going. We're completely done today, and it went well. He's finished with his two-day-a-week preschool here on base, so he's just going to be mine from now on!
Pictures will be added at the end of the post everyday, and then I'll make another slideshow when the week is over.
