Our day

I had planned to blog about form drawing but blogger is having some trouble and I can't upload any picture except one while you will see below.

So I thought I'd share a little of our day.

J recalled an Enki 1st grade story to me before breakfast prior to W waking up. Both kids are pretty good at recalling and does it pretty easily. J tends to tell me the whole story. After breakfast, we sang a few of Enki 1st grade spring songs and then did Sing Song yoga. This is the first time I did it with the kids. It was nice getting some stretches. Being that it spring (though it doesn't feel like it today), we read Princess Spring from Enki K nature story collection. The kids also took turns reading the story. I think every year we read it, we understand the descriptions a little better.

Then it was time for a snack break. While the kids ate, I read them Enki math story Grandfather's family(fact family). This is mainly for W as he hasn't heard it , but it is good for J to hear it again.

After that, the kids started doing form drawings from Enki 1st grade. The kids really enjoys doing the form drawing for the most part. Sometimes, W have a little frustration over how his forms look. But with a little imagination (i.e (me) what does the shape look like? Looks like lobster claws to me. (W) looks like scissor to me), he is doing really well.

Then while I tend to the laundry and leave them be, they wrap up form drawing and move to free drawing. My kids love to draw, esp. W. But J is not far behind either.

Then we ate lunch and the kids are playing. Later, we are going to go to the library and then to playground for the afternoon. J also have dance class in the afternoon. She is loving to dance now.

This is J's work from yesterday. She used Lyra fantasy stencils and painted it with watercolor pencils.
