Monday Sun Day

OUTDOOR SCHOOL: Monday it was so lovely out that I ordered the kids outside while they were studying up on some Japanese. 

I think it's good to mix things up when studying instead of just sitting in front of a computer at a in a dark-ish room.

PRODUCTION LINE: Annabelle (also known as Miss Bee) has been plugging on labels for our honey jars.

 I like her design!

CONDITIONAL: This week's psychology curriculum is focusing on behavioral psychology. This includes classical conditionaing, which is learning that one stimulus signals the arrival of another stimulus. (Think of Pavlov's dog salivating at the sound of a bell. It learned that response after having a bell run before feeding. Soon, the dog would salivate at just the bell, instead of the bell followed by food.)

One of the bits of homework today was watching a low-tech but pretty funny video about classical conditioning. We felt bad for laughing at it, but we did. 


BACK AT IT: With the weekend over, we were back in the gym on Monday. Annabelle gave the climbing wall a go.
