Fine Arts:

Church History:

Dictation: We are using quotes by Leonardo da Vinci for dictation.

Geography: Our map this week covered the early explorers.

Projects: We made our own tempera paint out of egg and dirt. Sorry about the photography. My camera was on a weird setting and I didn't know how to get it off. We also made invisible ink and write messages. We tried to make plastic, but it didn't work the way the directions said. All these projects are in the Leonardo Inventions you can Build Yourself book. It is a very fun book.

We made geometric shapes like Leonardo did when he illustrated the Geometry textbook.
