Fun Sunday....

but forgot the camera:((. First we did part of Jazzy's homework- compare and contrast three spiders,...plus draw pictures of each spider! Apparently they are studying spiders this week! Last week it was "dogs". We had to write a paragraph using vocabulary words- litter, mammal, hairy, coat, etc. That wasn't too difficult. The teacher wanted to know why dogs are supposed to eat bones. That one was pretty easy. So far we have done the tarantula and 'daddy long leg' which is not really a spider. We still have to research and write about the black widow. This is pretty easy since I am a homeopath and those spiders are used homeopathically. Then we have to write a paragraph about how we spend a typical Sunday. After doing homework, we spent the day at the Arizona Science Center. We have yet to make it thru all four floors of that place. We did make it up to the third floor this time. Jazzy was anxious to go today because it is the last day of the "Elmo Body" exhibit. Elmo was there teaching about the body inside and out, as well as many kids "body exhibits". We spent 4 1/2 hours there! Then, we walked around "Heritage Square" which is where there are a few nice restaurants in some of the first homes built in downtown Phoenix in the 1920's. We ate at "Teeter House"- built in 1920 something. I didn't really realize it was more of an "adult" restaurant. Jazzy wanted Asian noodles of course with shrimp. I ordered salmon- thinking I was ordering a nice piece of salmon with vegetables... but no, it was a couple of tiny slivers of raw cured salmon with a little half almond on top. We mixed it into the rice noodle dish so we wouldn't have to know we were eating raw salmon. Next of to ZoYo yogurt- Jazzy's favorite place right in downtown Phoenix. Now we're home and ready to finish the spider paper! No photos:((
