For Zoe's FIAR book, we explored the fun of "Storm in the Night" by Mary Stolz for the week of September 5th.
Social Studies Monday (which became Tuesday due to Labor Day): Zoe and I discussed the special relationship that Grandfather and Thomas had in the story. She then wrote about her relationship with her Pinki (Grandmother) and why it's special to her.

For Language Studies on Wednesday, we read the story and wrote out our vocabulary words which doubled as some handwriting practice.
Zoe made 3x5 cards to go her in vocabulary box.
For Math Thursday, Zoe looked at the quilt on the bed in the story that Grandfather hid under when he was scared of the storms. She learned about equilateral triangles. Then she completed a Quilt Math worksheet.
For our last day with "Storm In the Night", Zoe thought of different sources of light.
We used the wonderful internet to look up pictures of different types of storms and learned about different types of clouds.
What a great start to a Fall full of learning. Zoe was disappointed that we only read the book for five days and would be moving on to a different book next week.
