I'm trying to do more hands-on things with Tera and Daniel...so we borrowed Janice Van Cleave's Math for the Everyday Kid from the library. We worked through a couple of fraction experiments that had to do with radioactivity and the composition of air. We are also doing some problem solving math over the next few weeks.
I talked a few weeks back about trying to get Daniel more science experiment opportunities. Since he just told us (in an impromptu speech) that he'd like to be a scientist when he grows up. Well, this week I found an ice melting experiment for Michael and had Daniel set it up and implement it with him. It was cool when I heard Daniel talking to Michael before the experiment. He said, "Michael, which one do you think will melt first...A, B, C or D? I think this "one" will melt first." Yay!!! Scientific process at work...
