Apple- Day 5

Well, today has been pretty relaxing and productive.  It was much needed after a very busy Tuesday of Ladies Bible Class, school (we learned about Johnny Appleseed and played a memory match game with our ABC game cards.), and soccer practice.  We got a late start today and it pushed back lunch and naps.  I also let the kids play outside for a long time because it is absolutely beautiful out there today!  I'm trying to not stress out as much when it comes to being on a certain schedule with school and household chores (which seem to NEVER end.)  Today, I think I've done ok in this department.  Anyways, on to school things:

 This wasn't on the agenda today but we were reviewing how A is a vowel and how it is used in word like CAT and MAN.  I was writing some words with A in them on my white board and Johnny wanted to write some words on his white board.

 Charlie worked on tracing some of his alphabet.

 Johnny worked on some  handwriting and drawing pictures of words that start with the letter sounds we've gone over so far.

 He drew 2 lungs for L, haha.

 Then, we made apple trees by tracing their hands and arm for the trunk and cutting that and some green paper out and gluing it on blue paper and then finger painting apples on them.

They turned out really cute!  Although, I'm thinking Charlie's is looking a little gruesome.  Just in time for Halloween :-)
