We continued with the morning individual time scheduled for Tuesday-Thursday. Since this is the least favorite thing the kids do, they are glad that it is down to just three days instead of five. Sometimes it's less than that due to our schedule for the week!
Our theme this week was "4th of July"! I really had fun pulling together ideas for this holiday week. I also had a little more success finding free things compared to last week.
Monday - We started out our group time with a 4th of July word search that you can find HERE. They kids worked on it for about 20 minutes but no one finished it. We moved on to our next activity which was a trivia scavenger hunt. The kids had a sheet with questions on it; I had taped the answers around the house. They just had to find them and write them down under the correct question. You can find it HERE. After that we played some simple BINGO games. The down side to this BINGO game is that there were only 3 cards so the kids all played the same card and won all at the same time. They loved it. Finally, we worked on a 4th of July Lapbook.
Tuesday - Today they focused on the Lapbook. We also made Pinwheels.
Wednesday - Our first activity was a Mystery Graph Photo which is found HERE. This is all we did because it took the kids a full hour to work on this and only Nate finished. I totally expected this to take about 20 minutes!
Thursday - The main goal today was finishing some things. We worked on finishing up the Lapbooks, finishing their mystery pictures and finishing their word searches.
All in all, this was a good week. I enjoyed the kids projects and I "think" they did also.
