Week 4 of summer schedule

Monday: Passed off some scout requirements. We talked about what makes America special to us. Looked up our state flag, bird and tree. Researched 2 famous Americans.

Tuesday: Played animal charades. We were also going to play Dodge ball but got tied up in hide and go seek.

Wednesday: Spray painted. I got cheap water bottles and filled them up with tempera paint and water. Then let them create their "art" on the long newspaper ends. You can get them for a dollar at the Herald Journal. Danika enjoyed it more than Andrew did but, the little ones got a kick out of it.

Thursday: Thankful for our bodies: 5 senses. I printed some worksheets at http://www.cool-kids-craft-ideas.com/sensory-activities.html I then had them close there eyes and had them touch things, eat things and smell things. They had to guess what they were.

Friday: We made pupcakes. It's pretty simple really, just make a cake mix and then fry it like you would pancakes. Spread them with frosting and voila, a yummy and fast food frenzy Friday activity.
