19-20

Wednesday: E had a really great piano lesson, then we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house. In the afternoon she read Toliver's Secret by Esther Wood Brady.

Today: We've added a temperature component to the Weather Station--Alan hung a big themometer outside our office window, underneath the eaves, so it's out of direct sunlight. We are graphing the morning and mid-day temperatures with bar graphs, and we'll overlay a line graph of the day's recorded highs as reported in the paper. Read Heat Wave at Mud Flat by James Stevenson, Feel the Wind by Arthur Dorros, and Twister by Darleen Bailey Beard. Then after a break we read Buddha by Susan L. Roth, Samsara Dog by Helen Manos, and Foolish Rabbit's Big Mistake by Rafe Martin. E completed some worksheets about the water cycle that I got from the Discovery Education website, and had a math and spelling lesson.
