Week 1 Winters Promise Adventures in the Sea & Sky


Guide:  Week 1


  • We read from Sailing the Seas Through History and from Sailors, Whalers & Fantastic Sea Voyages.
  • We totally did not have time for the reading for Science scheduled this week.  It was only because of me being sick and doctors appointments so we'll catch up soon!
  • We worked on tying different types of knots.  We utilized our Cubscout book as well as the following website for instructions on the knots.  http://www.boatsafe.com/kids/knots.htm
  • We watched 20,000 Leagues under the Sea with Amazon Instant Video. (We watched the Disney Version-link at the bottom of the page)  As always you may want to prescreen :-)
  • I am using the Book 20,000 Leagues under the Sea as a read aloud. We read Chapters 1-4
  • For Art we did Pastel Sea Creatures using the 1-2-3 Draw Ocean Life by Freddie Levin.  We each just picked out one sea creature.
  • Runner did the drawing from 1-2-3 Draw Ocean Life.  All my boys painted Sea creatures with Water Colors and my youngest Bear made a Jellyfish craft.  (See my Pinterest for Ideas!)
  • We also watched several Youtube videos on Jelly fish (prescreen as you feel necessary!)

I have a Pinterest Board that I'm trying to keep track of all my *Extras* so feel free to take a look.  Many of the ideas are geared towards my younger guys so I can include them.
