I am sorry that I have gotten this out late, I have been out of town.
We got some new foam geometrical shapes, and played a ton of learning games with those.
The Kids had to use fast thinking skills, recognize objects, memorize patterns and use there brains!
Our unit study for this week was one of the human bodies Senses: Taste!
First we acted as scientists and discovered eveything that we could just by looking, feeling and observing.
After discussing how the tongue works and reading about it, we made tongue charts and did a taste test to see which spots of the taste buds taste which flavors.
The kids also used there creativity to make and decorate little Taste books- while I read our class chapter book "A Lion to Gaurd us"
I am seeing major improvment in the kids that have been coming to LIFT for even just a couple weeks.
It really is amazing how much better they can articulate, remember and create than when they they first started.
LIVING EDUCATION REALLY DOES WORK!
What to do at home:
- Have your kids give you a taste test!
