Ellie's Weekly Newsletter 20 Oct. 2013

Welcome to the world of /e/!  This week we'll have no cows or dinosaurs, but we will move to Egypt to study their hieroglyphic alphabet.  Look for paper Egyptian cartushes (sorry if that is misspelled!) coming home this week.  they will spell your child's name in hieroglyphics.

We'll also make our hair stand up by experimenting with static electricity.  We can even make water bend!  You will see a model drawing of your child's eye, and we'll learn what constitutes an emergency and what doesn't.  Then we'll practice dialing 911 (on broken phones).

Last week we created our own equations using dots on dominoes, this week we will continue creating equations using dice, as we become mathematical geniuses

We'll make books about favorite food choices (an intro to next week); and we'll find out who will eat green eggs (we'll hold the ham).  I think we only have one child who is allergic to eggs.  Right?  

In religion, we have arrived at Moses, and now begin his trials with Pharaoh, resulting in the 10 plagues.  This will be in book form also.

Another busy week!
