There is a version of the Adverb memory work sung to this song on the CCC.  I found it a lot easier to sing along while someone else played the cup game!  I thought this was an amazing version.  The English memory sentence fits in nicely over the vocalist singing.

Week 13

English

We have been listening to Mary Bryant's Indefinite Pronoun song.  You can download it from CC Connected.  In addition to memorizing the rest of the list we will look for the pronouns in our reading and possibly write them in sentences this week. 

Math

Make your own gallon bot with this free template:

This is a link to a worksheet that goes along with gallon bot.


Science

States of matter:

We are going to look at a few things for fun in class.
Liquid soap vs. solid soap
Helium balloon for gas
and hopefully touch one of those cool electricity lightning looking balls for plasma.  I can't think of its real name!


History

We are using this unit I bought from Teachers Pay Teachers to cover the Industrial Revolution.  It does a good job keeping the topic simple for my young kids, but still giving them valuable information, handwriting and comprehension activities. 



I haven't watched all of this yet. But it might be something we watch together this week.
