Day 6

Corb was in what I would call a "one step above stable" mood all day. Irritable and argumentative. No major inncidents. I am preparing myself, this usually grows for a few days leading up to a few days of full blown out of control behavior. He did his school work well, only having one issue with his Math.

Math-SM1B Worked on adding up amounts of money then identifying which amount was less or more. When he had to decide what was the least amount between 2 dollar bills and 2 sets of change(85 cents and 95 cents) he insisted the $2 was the least amount. I explained to him that $1=100 cents, he told me he "does not believe me". I will address it again today.

Language Arts-

History-Read Chp. 1 part 1"Nomads", then he answered the review questions.

Science-We began a week long study on Birds. We added birds to our types of animal wall chart. We identified the characteristics that make a bird. We looked at the wings and feathers of birds, comparing their wing arm to our arm. We looked at the different way birds move then tried to move like them. We read "How do they find their way" and "It's a Hummingbirds life". We hung out our Hummer feeder, decided to plant flowers that hummers like outside our window so we can watch for them then researched what flowers would be best to plant. Corb made an entry in his Garden Journal.
