Tropical Storm (22/180)

 D participated in her Zoom book group.  They are discussing 

The Birchbark House (Birchbark House, #1)The Birchbark House by Louise Erdrich.

J participated in a Zoom ballet class.  D and J both participated in a Zoom Staging Journeys class.

There was a major storm which rained 6 - 8 inches in 12 hours, raising the river we live above 24 feet above normal.  This provided a great opportunity for learning about how waves form, how tsunamis form, how tides and the moon work, how the river systems work, how flooding works in a river valley, and measuring rainfall.  Here's J and a friend draining excess water out of the pool: 
J read with support and worked with ETC, HWT, played number card games, and began learning to play the ukelele.

D read with support, did math sheets, worked with HWT and ETC, journaled, and began learning to play the ukelele.

R and W read independently, and both walked many miles with friends.

W prepared healthy meals for the family.

I read to the girls:
