It was Christmas fun week around here this time! We had some themes for the week, a math project, Christmas science fun and learning about Christmas in other states! The kiddos had fun and learned along the way so wonderful week! Fox just did his regular school since he said he was too old for Christmas school. He regretted this choice! I had tried to get a book for each theme but sometimes that didn't work out. The theme activities were some language arts type things and a few math activities.
I purchased The Twelve Days Of Christmas Activities on Teachers Pay Teachers.
Santa Claus Day was learning about Santa around the world the girls had fun. This is also a really cool book!
The girls had a lot of fun with the Christmas Science Kits! They played with static from balloons, made a boat full of toys, lit Christmas lights and even learned about pine cones protecting their seeds.
I really enjoyed these kits and the fact it came with a science notebook printable so the girls could record everything!
Fox had fun making a model of the flier by Leonardo Da Vinci.
For the math project the girls had to design a Winter theme park. They had a budget and everything. They got to put their park together at the end and had a lot of fun doing it. Rhyli's park was way fuller with stuff while Skyler's was kinda empty. While Rhyli went bankrupt Skyler didn't really attract many customers so she didn't earn very much money!
For geography type learning the girls read through some books called The Twelve Days Of Christmas In..... all based on different states in the USA.
All in all it was a pretty fun week. After next week we are taking a break and I am counting the days until then!!
