Storm in the Night

For the past few weeks we have been reading 'Storm in the Night'.It has been very interesting and fun.

Here are some pictures of the children's notebooks.And a rundown of what we did;

Page1 :

Sam drew some different facial expressions from the lesson in the manual.

We listed some sources of light,and learned a memory verse about fear.

There is a picture of Sam holding the "worry warrior"that he made.We got this idea from the crayola website,it is to help childern talk about their fears.
Sam decorated this page by drawing some sources of light.

Page 2:

We experimented with acrylic paints and did the lesson suggsted in the manual.

Sam completed a book on using the 5 senses,after we had had lots of fun doing sensory activities.

After reading all about lightning Sam did a few quizes about it.

Page 3:

I typed out a narration of the story which Sam dictated.

We learned the vocabulary from the story and made a mini book for it.

We made a mini book about Onomatopoeia and stuck some examples into it.

Sam illustrated the page with thunder and lightning.

We talked about Sam's relatioship with his 'Papa' and he wrote a few sentences about it.

Finally we put in some pictures of our special 'Storm in the Night' tea.

I also decided to get a notebook for Rose,although she is only 3 and won't have as much to put in it as Sam.I thought it would be nice for her to have her 'own' book to put a few things into.So,she has some painting,coloring,a rhyme and some photos too.Here's her page;
