This was my first full week back at work since the holidays and I've been good with my diet and exercise. I'm in several step challenges on my fitbit with other friends too , starting to weight train again a little and did a yoga class at the library.
Jack was happy to be back at Minecraft club at the library too and we both did two new classes as well. I did an adult coloring class and Jack did a cool snow science class. Our library rocks! I learned new methods of coloring for relaxation therapy and Jack completed a few cool experiments. At the library he made fake snow and snow slime. Good Ole chemical reactions.
Then today which was my homeschool teaching day which I look forward to all week , we did a few experiments as well. We did a penny in a balloon showing centripetal force and we made fake colored snow showing osmosis and now we are observing the colored snow tower for 7 days for color science and reverse osmosis. We should see the primary colors blend to make secondary colors and the water will evaporate from the fake snow leaving colored insta snow powder. We love science. We also worked more on our book study of Stuart Little with time , measurement and spelling of new words from the book. Geography with a map grid , math word problems , reading comprehension, dictionary , multiplication and fraction game, study of arctic animals , habitat and show on the Arctic while we ate lunch, temperature and volume, working more on spelling the 50 states and the state abbreviations. He even did a few chores at the end of his school day without complaining. He is ready to play his electronics for a little while and I'm going to relax in the hot tub and read then do some coloring before dinner. I'm cooking steak and sweet potato fries then later popcorn and the new Minions movie. Have I mentioned how much I love Friday's? We might even have time for a family game tonight.
