Math, Art, Science
We went for a walk around the neighborhood and collected interesting items (flowers, sticks, rocks, colorful leaves, etc.). At home, Faith counted how many of each item she had collected and drew pictures of them on a chart. At the end of each row of items, she added them up and wrote the number. Later, Daddy helped her count the total number of items collected. Then, using one long stick, we strung the items from it with string to make a mobile. Faith figured out how to get it to balance by tying the items to one end or the other.
