Week 7- Lots of fun and a birthday!

Let's see if I can remember everything for week 7. I think these are all the pictures from that week!! Here is Momo just doing some phonics in her Explode The Code workbook. She is almost finished with this one and will be ready to move into the next one!


Ian was doing a little preschool on the Internet!! He loves Noggin!


Kristen was looking at some pictures of present day Babylon.

Here is Ian doing some practice writing the number 3!


We pulled out the Math U See blocks. Even though Morgan is doing Horizons math, I still let her use the blocks sometimes. Ian enjoys them too.



Here is Aaron hard at work.

Kristen took a break to help Grandpa back to his room.

More schoolwork for Ian!

Here he was working on a cat puppet!

All done and he was VERY proud of his work!

He took it in to scare Sissy with while she was working on her math!

Next he was learning the shape of a diamond so he made a diamond snake picture!!


Momo was concentrating very hard on her weather lapbook.

She was learning all about clouds.

One of her activities was to go outside and look at the clouds, then draw the clouds she saw.

She wanted me to take a picture of the clouds!


Next, she had to do a little experiment. She made a cloud in a jar! Here she is getting all her supplies ready.

She called everyone in to watch the cloud form.


We had a surprise one morning when Momo woke up as a snaggletooth!! Her front top tooth had been loose but we didn't expect her to loose it while she was asleep!! I found her tooth in the bed and she hadn't even noticed it was out!!

Later in the week, we had some fun history!! We were learning about the ancient Egyptians and how they were buried in the pyramids as mummies. Of course, we had to wrap ourselves up as mummies too!! We also learned that they were buried with there treasures so they mummified their stuffed animals first. Here is Aaron getting ready to help Ian wrap his Deeno the Dino!

Kristen wrapped her puppy....



and...Momo wrapped her beloved Molly!

Maggie was just happy she didn't get wrapped in toilet paper.


Next up.....Ian turned into a mummy!!

Kristen wrapped Momo!!



Ian wasn't so sure about this after all was said and done!




Wait....Momo came unwrapped!

...and Ian did too!!

Kristen was not so happy!

Oh wait....I think she liked it after all.


Kristen the mummy!

She broke free too!!

Lastly, Mama was a good sport and let them wrap her too!! I think I got the raw end of the deal, they stuffed me, wrapped me, posed me and hung tails on me!!

To finish out the week we celebrated Uncle Carroll's birthday. Momo made a chocolate cake for him with very little help from me.


Here we all were getting ready to sing happy birthday!

Singing and getting ready to blow out the candles.....

Uncle Carroll had a little help from Ian!!

Randy and his daddy waiting for a piece of cake.
Grandpa!

I don't remember exactly what night the full moon was but I'll just post the pics here!! It was so pretty!




That wraps up week 7 for Eagle Star Academy!!

Wow what great learning fun. Those mummies were awesome. We wrapped mummies at a one of Lindsay's birthday parties. Her birthday is the day before Halloween so we had a lot of fun with it! That photo of you participating is just cute as can be. ROFL!
