Math
Abby has been doing review worksheets: measurements, tally marks, place value, ordinal numbers, addition/subtraction facts, patterns and money. I also introduced her to negative numbers.
Last week, she also did a few Spectrum Grade 1 tests.
As you can see, I had to write out the numbers to figure them out!
Reading
Abby did a few reading Spectrum tests about vowel sounds, sight words, spelling skills, using words in context and reading comprehension.Science
We never did resume our science stuff. The days have been so nice, that we end up running errands or playing outside. However, a few weekends ago we were at a garden center and Abby made a Hosiery Head. All week we've been measuring how long it's hair is getting. 
Isn't he funny looking? We've had to move his eyes several times, because they keep popping off.
Social Studies
Abby completed lessons 52-58 . We are nearing the end of Heritage Studies and these lessons were about our 4 basic needs, things people want vs. need, saving & spending money, all about me, you are special, family is special and family rules.Here's Abby's notebook page for Lesson 56 :
In the "my family" box she has the three of us, Kitty and Rosie. Her "favorite family celebration" is her and Dave swimming.
She also completed pages 20-27 in Maps, Charts and Graphs B. These were about direction and map scale.
Misc.
We visited the Butterfly House the week before last, went to a Scholastic book fair and had a Cinco de Mayo lunch out. This past week we went to the library and ran errands.
This week is our last week! We'll finish up on Thursday and Sunday is Abby's 7th birthday party. Let the Summer begin!

You've been busy! The Hosiery Head looks so cool! We'll have to give that a try here =)
We're finishing up this week too, and we're all looking forward to it! :) Now I'm on a mission to find some supplements for this summer so that we don't lose too much ;)
Yay for Abby's birthday coming up!
How exciting to be finishing up! I can't remember - do you do any school work over the summer or take a complete break?
I'm looking forward to seeing birthday photos!
That hosiery head is funny, but adorable! That would be super fun here too.
It will be time for us to visit our butterfly exhibit here soon too. Always look forward to that.
Oh, I know you are so excited about the school year ending!! I LOVE our breaks, but I do enjoy school lots too.
I hope Abby's party is so much fun for your family and a special time for her too. Can't wait to see pictures!
