Term Two: Week Eight ~ Nearing the End of the Term

We are quickly reaching the end of the term and the time when my photos reflect more of their non-structured time then their structured learning time.

I found some more of Monkey's drawings and decided to photograph all of them, even though a few of these are repeats from last week. All of these are done without instructions or a tutorial video of any sort. Monkey simply finds a photograph of an animal (or person) on his phone and uses that as his guide as he draws.

As I mentioned last week, I really love the cassowary.



The echidna is also a favourite of mine...

This drawing of an emu is really wonderful as well.

Another After School Activity day at the library - and a Lego week. We were the only ones there this particular week but Munchkin didn't let that bother him. He just got to work building. Below you can see all the creations he made, given that he had two boxes of Lego all to himself.












Munchkin still spends huge portions of his day reading and re-reading his favorite books.

Monkey finished the book on the left as part of Premier's Reading Challenge, and we finished off the second book in the Daisy series which is part of Munchkin's Australian history unit study.

Liz Pichon books are a favourite of Munchkin's. A neighbour gave the boys several of the Tom Gates books, and thankfully the library has the rest in the series as well as a few other books by the same author.

We finished off Monkey's Ancient Greek unit study with these final two books.

And continued working on our books from these two series as well.
