We have been busily working on our Nature Journals this week. We will fill them with drawings and paintings of North American birds along with a few interesting facts about each of the birds. We have continued in our reading of Robinson Crusoe this week. This past Thursday, the girls did a wonderful dramatic interpretation of the text. The scene included a shipwreck which made it quite fun to act out and even more delightful to watch! We have finished our 3 hour long movie, "Paul the Apostle", in Bible class. It was an amazing depiction of the life of Paul. The girls really enjoyed it. In history, we will do a review of Henry the Navigator and Columbus before introducing our next explorer. Along with our review, we are going to learn about Michelangelo, a famous artist of the time period, as well as sculpting the Madonna. Don't forget Open House on Saturday! I will see you there...
