Just another school day!

The kids decided they wanted to do the 30 Day Shred to get in some exercise. It was HILARIOUS! But they did really well. They did the entire 20 minute workout. (which is more than Juan and I can say for ourselves.)



Cait decided she wanted to watch the Hooked on Phonics dvd to practice her reading.



She successfully read the second book, Sam, in the Bob Books series!
Then she read it to her babies.
 Jayden worked on math worksheets involving subtracting money.
Once he was finished, we worked on Science and discovering that air takes up space.

We started with an empty bottle. I squeezed it nearly flat. Then I had Jayden blow into it, watching it fill back up and demonstrating that air occupies space.
We compared solids and liquids and discussed how to measure them by mass, length and/ or volume. 


We tested out the different ways to measure solids and liquids.

We tried out our membership to Spelling City for the first time today. Jayden took his spelling test online (and scored 100!) and searched for his spelling words in a word search. So far he really likes the website.


Then we read chapter 1 of Mummies in the Morning. (See Jayden all excited in the back? Yeah, he was checking out my "lame" map!)
He loved working in his notebook today!
