Space!

Shay was beyond thrilled that this week we were learning about 2 of her favorite things- The Statue of Liberty and Space. Last week, she took a book out of this weeks reading bag called You Wouldn't Want To Be A Worker On The Statue of Liberty and read it over and over again. After reading, she thought we should take a trip up to New York, after all, Uncle Troy is there! Maybe someday soon.

Then we opened up today's lesson plan and saw we reading about the Solar System! Of course, we had a book to go with it. We read  The Planets. She read most of the book on her own before getting tired around Saturn. There was a lot of information that is hard to wrap her head around- especially Earth days and years compared with those on other planets, but I think she understood for the most part. After reading the book, she drew the Solar System.

I wrote the words (except for her name) :)

So proud!

Her art is really coming along. Maybe soon we can get her writing.
