Writing

Caitlin is suddenly very interested in writing. She wants to practice her writing so that she can be a faster writer. She sees how quickly Juan, Jayden, and I are able to write and she gets frustrated that she can't do it too. So now she insists on practicing in her new pink notebook. I write three sentences and she copies them. Her handwriting is so freakin adorable!!!!!!!!!!

She loves using the "addicus"  (what she calls the abacus).

In history we read about the earliest writing (Egyptian-hieroglyphs and Sumerians-cuneiform). Caitlin & Jayden colored a picture showing an ancient Egyptian carving hieroglyphs into stone.

 Jayden also worked  on map skills, identifying the Nile River and Egypt.
