In co-op this week, we entered the high-tech world of computers. Both Tapestry of Grace classes studied the history and function of these modern-day necessities. The Upper Grammar kids made books describing the history of computers, were able to see and touch many different computer parts and then learned all about the kinds of circuits that make up the inner workings of computers. The very knowledgeable Mrs. Canode even taught the kids how to make their own circuits. The Lower Grammar class was taught by computer whiz, Mr. Glazier. He took apart a computer to show to the boys all the different parts. Then he told some very funny computer stories, he had everyone in stitches! Downstairs, the Five in a Row kids read "The Grouchy Ladybug." Throughout this story, the bad-tempered, bragging lady bug becomes a nicer, happier, better-behaved bug! The kids then painted their own adorable lady bugs out of river rocks. They also made cute lady bug clock faces!
