Today, even though most of the classroom 'forgot' their chapelet we began the day reciting a decade of the rosary. We shall do the same for the entire month of May. Today, we hashed out the routine and how we would proceed for the next 17 mornings or so. We needed a leader today to break the ice and that leader was Kaylea. C'est beau Kaylea (double clap!!). Bring your rosaries tomorrow les enfants and if you have a few bring them along so you can lend them to a friend in need.
We began our last science lesson today. Quiz coming up les enfants! Next week after the review so be warned :) If you have genuinely participated and worked hard during the classroom lessons you will rock this quiz out!!! We were also entertained by our last Talk Show. The Ethan show today welcomed a professional figure skater. Sniff sniff, it is already over... Here is something else that is over... we corrected Week 30 of our daily Math. Nicolas actually got all the days' answers right which is an automatic WOW!!! We have not even gone to our next field trip and the kids almost have themselves another banked field trip. Way to be les enfants!! Talk about finishing the year strong. Monsieur Beaulieu is always proud of you and your efforts!!!
For our last social unit. We talked about medium of exchange or media... I am not sure between the Europeen and the native people. We worked our way up to what we use today and talked about currency vs money. Kids felt today what real money is as I brought a one ounce silver and gold coin. Jim Richards has this cool video that I showed the kids before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9xnBmDEeec Today they weighed, touched, felt and smelt each coin and the most common reaction is always WOW or Whoa.... I wish I had a camera for some reactions :)
That is all for now,
