Science, week 12 with Catholic Schoolhouse Curriculum

Extreme Weather. We had our weather grand finale today! Students pieced together 2-liter bottles to make water tornadoes, and we made lightening with balloons and a light bulb! Both were a great hit with the students. In retrospect, one balloon and a volunteer would have been more orderly than one balloon for each student. Imagine! 20 students each with a balloon in a small room! They enjoyed it.

Now we shall enjoy a long break to re-organize supplies and energies before we meet again in January. A Blessed Advent to all!

Art, Week 12 with Catholic Schoolhouse Curriculum

Nine-Patch Blocks finished. Today, the children who had not finished their nine-patch blocks worked on sewing patches together, while those who had finished worked on a Saint Nicholas Coin Pouch for the Feast of Saint Nicholas! The students greatly enjoyed putting their new sewing skills to good use on a new project, and there was some chatter about what the pouches would be used for. Perhaps, they will brainstorm new projects to do at home, since we are now finished with sewing.*
