We had a fabulous visit with Melody! Unfortunately, it was IOWA testing week for us, but we managed to find some fun for her. When she arrived on Friday, we happened to have a birthday celebration scheduled for Alexandra, so Melody had her very first experience at Jak’s Warehouse, a super fun play place with go-carts, laser tag, video games, and mini-golf. Could there be a better start for her visit with us?
Melody did participate in the IOWA testing, but she also helped us wind up our unit on Egypt as she assisted Mia with a book about Egyptian Gods. She also took part in a discussion of Egyptian Pharaohs. The class created life-sized sarcophagi that we used as we introduced each pharaoh to the class.
She also assisted in getting our next unit on space “off the ground.” She helped Danny out by showing off his patch design that we will use to create a bag that we will take along with us to Space Camp. This will provide us a VERY cool way to carry around our belongings.
Fifth grade also has a performance coming up, so we put Melody to work! She assisted Reuben with his composition for the song he is writing about Colonial America, a unit we studied at the beginning of our year together.
We learned that Melody's limitations were few in our environment.
