Movie Day

Today is Tuesday, so no school.  We went to the free 10 am kids movie at the theater with a couple of our friends.  The movie was Arctic Tale.  Afterward, since I was out of the theater at the end (thanks Sylvia) Isabel let me know that all of the animals started their own families.  I commented that that was a happy ending!  She then said, "No it wasn't!"  My response, "Huh?"  Then Isabel, "The baby brother died!" and she burst into tears and I had to hug and console Isabel for a few minutes while Sylvia got herself lost again.  One of the baby polar bears had died earlier in the show.  I didn't really expect this reaction from her since Luke is usually the super sensitive one. Quote of the day:

"If Sylvia was in a video game it would be rated "M" for mature."  --Luke

This Week's Goal

Luke and Isabel did a lot of drawing and writing today. Then Math. Then from our Tell Me About The World book we learned how deep the Pacific Ocean is.  It was a little geography lesson as well since we needed to get out a map and globe. We then had a little history lesson when Luke read us the book, Wright Brothers by Lisa Wade McCormick.  I then read out loud Little House on the Prairie to them.  My goal for this week is to have that book finished and for Isabel to finish her Math book.
