BUGGED

I am trying really hard to stay focused and ambitious. I love afterschooling and so do the kiddos so quiting is not an option. We have slowed our pace and much of it has to do with mom trying to get the enrichment bins done (more details later).
We started a bug unit last week and we have learned LOTS of great things about bugs. The kids each created their own bug complete with Head, Thorax and Abdomen. They are so creative! Yesterday we learned, King Phillip, Come Out For Goodness Sake! Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species. Better known as the scientific classification for all living things. We picked some bugs and found a fun website that uses physical characteristics of bugs to search for their class. We got them all WRONG! However it was fun to find out what class they were really in.

So you see we are still ticking just a little slower then before. I just need to wind our clock!
