Important vocabulary

Today was more about learning than taking good pictures apparently...

Lucy is moving right along in her reading.  She is good on 3 letter words and we are just practicing every day to build comfort and speed.  Most days, she does a great job getting through a lesson in our reading book
.

We had fun making tricky words for each other.  This important vocabulary one was mine.  Hers for me was "epgrd".  Tricky, that one.



In Zoe's spelling, we are working on blends and getting every single sound down. 
Working on the board is fun, at least for now!


In science, we talked about Solids, Liquids, and Gases.  They are very familiar with changing states of matter from last year, but I was surprised that it took them awhile to put the names to the states again.  We classified lots of different items from around the house and have had a regular little science lab going in our freezer and sink ever since.  

Here we are looking at glue and water: each in the solid and liquid state.
