Straight after Halloween was the Tuesday meet up with The day of the dead and skeletons as a theme. It seemed to go well, although no one really wanted to do the oil pastel skeletons with me :0( However parachute games, ooblec and all the other things were great.
After the meet up we went to the park, met a lady who was considering home ed and passed on some group details. milo enjoyed the park. Then we went to Sandwell Valley. It was lovely making up Smotty stories in the big round swing, having cuddles.
The next morning we had some fun making lego skeletons and Elliot re-created mine, then Nerfed him!
Next we created a balloon game for the Nerf on strings, definitely possibilities for multiplications games there!
We did maths, math whiz, some reading, a bit of drawing. Tiger finished off his zombie story and both wrote a bit about shadows. They explored how to make the best shadows and what happened to shadow length and size too.
We had a lovely day on Saturday with a last minute decision to have fireworks at home. Lovely, especially the story telling around the fire pit.
We went for an autumn walk to collect some leaves, twigs and acorns for the meet up on Tuesday and to walk Milo.
This was a super cute pic of Milo and Ben playing together. On Monday (7th) we did some book maths, whiz maths, spelling, knex building, bird seed cake making and TV watching.
Tiger had been playing Quack Quack with Ben earlier… I also found a 2.95 set of moon sand in the charity shop which went down a storm!
