We made it through our first week of distance learning. Here are some pictures to prove it (tears and tantrums not photographed).
On Monday, Maggie had her first online dance class.
Part of Maggie’s math was doing tangram puzzles. Annie loves puzzles and hopped right up to help.
Last week was also School Spirit Week. Tuesday was “Rainbow Day” and Maggie was thrilled.
Luke had to draw a picture of “King Gallon” for math. Inside you can see Queen Quart, Princess Pint, and their cat, Cup (it shows how the different measurements relate to each other).
Wednesday’s Spirit Day challenge was to share a picture of a book they are reading – Maggie’s book was very fitting. Luke is currently reading The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan and Adam’s reading Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer – in case you’re curious.
Maggie working on addition and creating bundles of ten while Adam helped Luke with his math.
Thursday was Crazy Sock Day. Luke went with fuzzy snowmen socks.
Maggie picked princesses.
And Adam opted for sloths (thank you Aunt Stacy).
Luke’s most challenging assignment for the week was probably in art. He was tasked with recreating a Van Gogh landscape of his choice. He picked Wheatfield with Crows.
And after a lot of hard work and frustration, he came up with a really great rendition. I’m so proud of how he stuck with it and kept going.
Adam had his first virtual guitar lesson.
Friday was school spirit day.
It was a long week, but I think they all handled it really well (probably better than I did, if I’m being honest).
We’re back at it again today. I’m writing on this on my laptop while Maggie and Annie play in the basement. Luke is sitting next to me working on math and Adam is watching videos for English. Hope your week is off to a good start too.
