Weaving, a Projector and Painting

Science:

This week we learned about our skin, hair, and nails. We watched some really cool YouTube videos about our hair, skin, and nails. We learned about the different parts and layers in this body system. There was this weird cartoon character who had a mustache with his hands at the tips of it. I said, "what even is that guy?"

We also watched a few videos about the creation of the Earth and other planets and we learned about Pangea. Long ago, all the continents were all joined together! But over hundreds of years, they split apart. Cool!

 

Tech:

Doodle Crate (Kaylee):

Now that my ocean wave is framed and completed, I started working on this picture that will hang in my brother's room.

Tinker Crate (Landen):

I completed the outside structure of my phantom projector. It is almost done!!

Elective:

Arts and Crafts (Kaylee):

This week we painted wooden animals..

My great Grandpa is building an adventure ride in his backyard for all the great grandchildren to go on. We were asked to paint animals that will be hidden along the way for the kids to find. These are the animals we were given. It was quite the project! It took all week, with both my mom, Landen and I working on them. Here they are!

Mom made the Monarch butterfly and giraffe herself. We painted the base color for each animal, and she added the extra details for most of them.

These are my creations!

Mom helped do the wings of the butterfly- I did the rest. I tried to make them as smooth as I could, and it took a couple different coats to actually cover the wood of the animals.

These are Landen's.

Building Machines (Landen):

This week I built a project, but then my brother and sister wrecked it. So, I built a police car, a getaway car and this large transporter for gold! The police car drives around the transporter to protect the gold.

If he gets caught... there is a place for him to be hauled away to jail.
