Home Learning - Week 2 - Chai, Fruit Fly Trap, Garden Kiosk, Albinism

This is what I did this week at home schooling:

I am working on Math Playground to learn Big Girl Math - adding and subtracting.

I am learning about money: our garden kiosk made $19 this week. We are going to buy a rose plant that smells good.
We are giving the bluebell bulbs away for free because we have no room for them in our garden.

We made a fruit fly trap from vinegar and dish soap. We don't have a fruit fly problem anymore.

I wrote a thank you card to Paulo and mailed it to the transfer station.

I am curious about albino animals. I think they are cool. We researched it and made a mind map.

We made chai from scratch and I wrote the recipe.

50 peppercorns and one chilli pepper are the secret ingredients.

We found two big slugs in the garden. We made a house for them, but they escaped overnight.
We also found a dead beetle. We put it in a jar for later.

We sorted tools. There were three kinds of screwdrivers, but they were all different sizes. 

We made pizza. It was super good. We ate it outside because it was sunny.

I am learning to keyboard. We posted our old toddler bed rails for free on Craigslist, and I did all the typing. I hope somebody wants them.

Skating lessons start on Sunday. We bought new skates with pink skate guards. I saw a vampire skating costume. This is not it.

After school I like to colour. Always ask permission before sitting on a cow.

Home schooling is a lot of work, but it's good.
