Classroom Holiday Update

These last four weeks have been a bit chaotic, but we fit in a bit of homeschooling time when we could.  Of course, with Christmas and New Year's, we had to do as much as we could to try to fit in the rest of the lessons.  Here is a quick recap of some of the things we did in the Red Snail Classroom in the last few weeks.

We practiced a bit more on counting change back.  We did a little more with the mock grocery store and it has really help Skylar grasp the concept of home much change should be given back from bigger bills too.

Skylar learned that subtracting and adding money is just the same as with regular numbers.  He was pretty excited that he caught on.  I let him use scratch paper to help out when he needed it.

We even let his dad help out with being the customer and buying items in the grocery store.  We all had a lot of fun with it, and Skylar was counting back change so quick that he wanted to keep doing it all night.  So proud!

We did a bit of grammar practice with nouns and adjectives.  We used some worksheets with this practice.

We made a few fun things for Christmas.

We also made a huge paper stocking to hang from our classroom clothes line.
