Monday - For Math we learned about rounding numbers to the nearest million and cleaned up my room. My brother is moving his room downstairs, so I have the room all to myself. We are going to design what my room can be like! I want glow in the dark stars on my ceiling! We forgot about the making muffins zoom call, but mom and I still made muffins. They were yummy! Tuesday - Today we had our Brain Balance zoom call, and did another math assignment. We fed my pet Praying Mantis and learned that the mealworms need water to stay alive too, by cutting up fruit and giving to them. We also found a spider eating a butterfly! Wednesday - Today we went to a playgroup, but only a couple young kids were there. But mom and I practiced jump rope. We also did a math assignment.

Monday - Today we went to a playgroup at a park I've never been to. It was a fun playground and there were other kids that I played with there. I have been feeding my Praying Mantis, Sunny, every day. Tuesday - Today I did brain balance and then a zoom call art class where we made Minecraft selfies. Mine didn't turn out great, but part of that was because I had to use small graph paper. My mom wasn't able to print off the larger grid paper. I got to start on Minecraft Education. I really like it. I can do coding and there are more things I can do and it's fun. Wednesday - Today we did Math and Language Arts. I did a Lion picture for Math, it was fun. We are still reading Pollyanna. I am making a character sheet to help me remember all the characters. Pollyanna helped a man who broke his leg. Thursday - Today we learned more about Minecraft Steam and completed the first activity where we dissected a flower. I chose a dark pink rose from my yard. I looked at the flowe...
