Week 26 of Homeschool: We learned about the early people of the Americas, made a thaumatrope like the ones used in Victorian times, studied Latin 3rd declension noun endings, built a box with layers of filters and little fishy’s to create polarized light, learned what a linking verb is, got to be the umpire in t-ball, learned Latin prepositions, made an Ames room to create optical illusions, went to our cousin’s birthday at Chuck E Cheese’s, learned some parts of the atmosphere, drew an impossible triangle and created our own fractals, and visited a Roseville fire station where we got to hold the jaws of life, get in a fire truck, and try on a real fire-fighter uniform!
