Homeschooling Week 1


No materials. No Little Lincolns online. The teacher at MOVIP is working her heart out trying to get us materials to keep up, but it is discouraging.

We did an art lesson on texture that I found on the internet. Textured paper towels cut into leaves then dipped in a solution of 50/50 water and glue and pasted to posterboard. We let it dry and it was really rough and hard. Meshed with out lesson on solids and liguids in science as well. Crayon viens and watered down watercolors to paint the fall leaves. A masterpiece!
