Quarantine...

The Quarantine begins.... they kids call it "Mom School"

Science videos and battle ship (Max is learning graphing in math!)

            

Then on to research projects on a country of their choice...


  

Lots of outdoor time, blessed with nice weather.  Aka: Gym class:)

 

More math class and gym class...

The kids LOVE eating lunch downstairs with mom-mom, playing in her wheelchair and watching game shows.  They also enjoy afternoon reading time with her!


Lunch with science videos.


Baking & Math!


Max did a great job on his paper!


More wonderful weather to be outside!

 


Family walk at Fort Hunter




 



Back to mom school!  Math videos and time to learn all the states!

 

Scrabble for spelling


The kids loved doing all kinds of scavenger hunts this spring!

 




Drawing class for art and twister for gym on a rainy day

 

And Rack-O for math


This is my life now, lesson planning for mom school:)  At least the school did provide some packets the kids can work on for now.


More outside time (aka: gym)


 

 

 


Walk around Italian Lake


Monster cookies, yum!

They're doing awesome with states

 

Art project

 

Aliyah's set up


April Fools jokes...

 

We missed the DC Cherry Blossoms but enjoyed out own back yard instead





Another fun art project



 



Soccer goals

 

Something I don't think the kids realized till we were done, but my goal was something special every day.  It was often something very little, like a special drink with dinner, or treat after dinner.  With all our food being ordered and delivered, and then cooked by me there were little things I'd try to get.  We also had zero social interaction so a new game or new fun place to explore was often the surprise.  I can't say enough wonderful things about this time, they absolutely loved being all together as a family every day!
