Today we hung a glow in the dark model of the solar system in our dining room. (A dead giveaway that we are homeschoolers if ever there was one...) We learned several facts, our favorite being that is is possible that it rains diamonds on Uranus and Neptune! I was shocked at how much she already knows about the planets, including which one is called "the red planet".
We saw "The Karate Kid" along with Flora's best friend, Nick. We talked about China and my experiences there when I visited in 1987. I showed her China on the map. I can see this being something we continue learning about because she was fascinated with the movie and had a lot of questions.
She and Nick had $10 to buy snacks with. It was fun watching them grapple with how to get the most for their money. They each chose a snack pack and had 4 quarters left over to play video games.
She went swimming and played at Nick's house for a couple of hours.
She played wii dance for an hour, she's really getting good at that game!
