Mrs. Pederson’s Class: Week 11
Another epic day of CC was enjoyed by all today . Thank you, Renee and Erin for making the planetarium possible! After discussing the different constellations and asking great questions, we enjoyed lying on our backs under the night sky, and singing Christmas carols that had to do with stars! Such a sweet memory was made.
During our New Grammar time, a few of the children did take a turn at being the tutor for 4 minutes. I will give them the opportunity again next week when we are all on board with the idea. Logan and I will be working on the 7 reps/4 minutes concept as we practice his part for next week. It is fun to see the creativity blossom in our classroom of future CC tutors! Here’s the list in case your child forgot which one they are assigned:
Math– Ana
English– Laraya and Javen
History–Hattie
Latin– Peyton
Time-line–Abigail
Geography– Rachel
Science– Logan
Here is the link to the pretty version of our song Scarborough Fair if you would like to enjoy that with your child. https://youtu.be/Y4D7rT4WLHE. Next week is our last week of Tin Whistle and if we are feeling confident, we may play for the group during lunch time. We are just focusing on playing the song by ear, starting on an ‘e’ note. We’ll see how it goes, if nothing else, we may just sing the song for the other children since it is such a medieval sounding tune.
Every week, I am amazed at the privilege we have in meeting together. It isn’t just the actual CC educational material that is a huge blessing, it is the side conversations over lunch, and during breaks that are such an encouragement to me personally. I enjoy pondering what I have learned on our drive home and cherish each one of you. Thank you to all of you sacrificial families who make this all possible!
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!
