Science- we studied how animals move (feet, legs, or wings or fins, or moving their bodies-snakes). They all got to pretend to be certain animals and we guessed what they were. We went online to San Diego Zoo and looked at some animals
History- we moved on to Africa. They all did good finding it. I could tell Quinn was able to look for the A for Africa to be sure where he was. We located the Nile and Congo River and Lake Victoria. We talked about the Sahara Desert, how they survive with special clothing, move around so their animals can find grass for food, and how they use camels to carry their belongings so they don't get tired. (They already knew a lot of this I was told :) ). Good memory's!
They made a drawing of a camel crossing the desert on a piece of sandpaper, then ironed it with wax paper. I'm not sure if the idea was to see the picture on the wax paper or to change the drawing, but I sent both home.
I finished the jingle bracelts and anklets, but we ran out of time so we didn't get any jingling to music from India done.
I made the clay dough for relief maps. It seems really dry, but it says it should get moist while in the fridge. If it's too dry when we need it, it says just to add a few drops of water. I'll send it on Tues, if we are back to normal next week, otherwise, wherever it should go.
