Flora successfully completed her ninth grade. She did well on her tests and I mailed her results and last quarterly report card to our local school today. Now we are doing summer school and are working on things we could not do while traveling in Europe, for example many science experiments. Today we did several experiments for physical science. Here we are building a circuit.
Flora hat ihre neunte Klasse erfolgreich abgeschlossen. Sie hat gute Testergebnisse bekommen und heute habe ich diese und ihr letztes Quartalzeugnis an die Schulbehörde geschickt. Jetzt machen wir Sommerschule und arbeiten an Dingen, die wir in Europa nicht machen konnten. Dazu gehören auch Experimente in den Naturwissenschaften. Heute haben wir einen Stromkreislauf gebaut.
And here are a few pictures books we have enjoyed.
Und hier sind noch einige Bilderbücher, die wir neulich gelesen haben. Sie waren alle sehr schön und informativ, doch gibt es sie alle nicht auf Deutsch.
The Boo-Boos That Changed the World (A book about how band-aids came into existence.) Paid link
The William Hoy Story (A book about a deaf baseball player) Paid link
Tomfoolery! (A book about Randolph Caldecott) Paid link
Along Came a Radioactive Spider (A book about the creation of Spider-Man) Paid link

Glad to read that all went well with the end of year tests xx
ReplyDeleteYes, she did improve her score by quite a bit :). It was a good score last year, but this year's was better. She is making good progress.
DeleteYes, congratulations to Flora! And I miss those catch up homeschooling summer days. Science experiments are fun!
