Ending November into Mid December 2022

 We have a lot of things going on in our Homeschool life. We had Family visit from Colorado. And enjoyed our time with them. 

After the eruption of Mauna Loa in Hawaii we have been studying Volcanos. We have been following the updates on Volcano Updates | U.S. Geological Survey (usgs.gov) 

We have enjoyed seeing footage of the lava flow https://youtu.be/0VG0C1GhAus

Reagan was curious how tall the lava was shooting out of the volcano top... We researched it and found that the lava reaches several hundreds of feet into the air. https://youtu.be/pp43X32Oub8

We have been learning about the difference between Hawaii volcanos and Yellowstone volcanos.

We have planned to build a Volcano in the very near future and involve a couple of homeschooling friends.. We also have a sundial we need to build with that same group to finish up our sundial chapter in Reagan's science book. 

We have continued to review multiplication facts. And have been working on Math app, Teaching Textbooks Math4 

Reagan helped his dad put up Christmas light. Reagan helped his dad organize the workshop in the garage and learned about each tool and its purpose as the reorganized. He went with his dad to shop for lumber at Lowe's and helped build a shelf for my kitchen. 

Reagan has helped me in the garden, and we have been hoping to see our Butterflies emerge from their chrysalis but unfortunately, they were both missing. We are hopefully they hatched and are the beautiful butterflies we see in our yard :)
