Adrian enjoyed writing his acrostic poem.  Here he is performing it.

Here is a link to a video of him reciting it.

Rough draft

5 Kind things

Pictograph

I walked him through a number line but realized I did it wrong...or weird.  Should have added all the 10s first...sorry.

Watching the seed video

Tuesday, 4/28

The boys love poetry!!!  I'm so surprised, to be honest.  But they love rhythm and reciting the poems.  Here is Adrian reading today's poem:

Here's his drawing of what's happening in the poem.  Not very inspired.  Sorry--they kept wanting to go back to read the Dog Ate My Essay poem instead...


He was inspired by this journal entry, though...Wow!


Here's his pictograph.  He got bored with the food items we surveyed yesterday and made up his own.  Given he did it without complaint, I let him.  His answers to the questions are on the right, but you can hardly read them.  Anyway, he successfully compared numbers.



His seed drawings.  We collected some more when we finally got outside this morning--but they'd already done these drawings.  We'll add more tomorrow.



He drew the Jabberwocky! LOL.  He didn't want to finish coloring...not sure why because it's a great drawing!

Working on addition and subtraction problems.  I didn't make him do Happy#s today and we did 2-digit  addition and subtraction problems.  He can do the addition ones in his head (!) using proper technique.  But he DID need some help with subtraction.  But it's basically executive functioning again..he forgets the order in which to do things.  But his math skills are spot on when he remembers the steps and focuses.


Silent reading.  He did 30+ min. today! Yay!

Silent Reading--excuse the giant mess in his room. :-(


His big project of the day was building this Transformer Lego COMPLETELY out of his own brain.  It's really impressive, even if I'm biased!  It's really intricate and well-though out.  He starts with a massive bucket of Legos and somehow pulls this together...






Here he is explaining his creation...

Lunch bunch

Silent reading







Funny how his brain works...he understood the graph, but still chose to shade in the area that was NOT the measurement...
