Want to do some science with your little ones?  Here is a Science Calendar assigned to my First Grader.  The September science calendar had the focus on motion and balance, this month is a little more Fall related with topics that incorporate the outside. I wanted to put this up in case there are any people reading this that would like to follow along or are looking for science related topics to do at home.

Mirette On A High Wire Book Reading

This Book Reading is for Mirette On A High Wire which was an assigned reading book for my daughters first grade science class.  The focus was on balance and motion and this book was a credit.  I did the video for her to watch and read along for the purpose of education.  Also I allowed access for the rest of the science class in the event they could not get a copy of the book for themselves (there were only 3 circulating in the Pittsburgh Public Library System-Carnegie Libraries of Pittsburgh).  So if you are watching this for science, think about the process of learning to do something new:

1. Did Mirette know how to walk the high wire at the beginning of the book?
2. Why did Mirette fall?
3. How did Mirette learn to walk the high wire?
4. What did Bellini learn from Mirette?
5. Is there something you learned to do on your own or with help?  How did you learn to do it?


Happy Reading!

Okay folks....This book is worth the purchase.  While I borrowed it from the local library, I am going to put it on the purchase it list. 

Picking up Auntee Roxy, Song, By Violet my 2 yr old.

Got to love a kid that has the ability to sing her way through the day.  While I sometimes miss these gems of songs because I am too immersed in day to day tasks, I am lucky at times to catch some rare moments on Voice note Recorder.  Enjoy!

P.S.  I couldn't put just the MP3 on blogger, so I attached some pictures of Pittsburgh from the recent fog over the city pictures I took and made a mini movie with the song.  Enjoy!
