"School"

School was slightly unconventional today.

8:00 AM - Spanish

• We had a friend who needed to take pictures of her teaching a Spanish class to kids to help her advertise, so she asked my girls if they would like to participate.

9:00 AM - Art

• We walked around a mini-art gallery and tried (and failed) to make my own paint from colorful foods, which we learned about a while back.

11:00 AM - Science

• Create a way to save your egg from breaking after dropping off a set of cement stairs.  Eden's creation was tissue cushion and a parachute top...which did not survive.  Molly's creation, wrap it like crazy with a large blanket...which survived.  Leila's creation, stuff a box full of rags with the egg in the middle...which also survived.

12:00 PM - Math

• Sliced fruit into eight pieces with my apple slicer and did fractions with Eden.

1:00 PM - PE

• Outside play time and play time at the park

2:00 PM - Writing

• Had Eden write down a list of 23 good manners that were mentioned in the book "Clifford's Good Manners" to prepare her to have good manners at a birthday party she was going to.

(3:00 PM to 5:00 PM - Birthday Party)

6:00 PM - Home Economics

• Cleaning.  Lots of cleaning.

8:00 PM - Religion

• Family scripture study
