The son wrote this post (with help on the first 2/3 parts of the paragraph, specifically with the subject-verb agreement) for his homeschool provider’s newsletter. Not sure if it will see print but I am posting the paragraph now.
Next post will be a repeat but will have the photos in his narration. He was able to write the paragraph with us looking at the photos I took.
I am JCF. I had lots of play activities. My first play was the planets. My weight in Jupiter is 45.1 kilograms. I saw my self in the mirror. My (younger) sister and I played on the bridge. We played bubbles. We watched the coin fall in the hole. We clapped in the echo tube. We played on the swing. Then we rode on the bike with the skeleton. We played the electricity ball. Then in the shadow room my shadow was left on the wall. Then I had a colorful shadow. The steady hand game is really hard. I like the Magnetic Repulsion Game. The abacus is big. I enjoy going to the Science Centrum.

__ In time, caves are formed.
__ Water and limestone from the ceiling form stalactites.
__ Running water finds its way to cracks of rocks.

1. Make sure that the decimal points that separate the pesos from the centavos are all in one column.
2. Add the amounts just like the whole numbers.
3. Do not forget to write the correct symbol ( or ) and the decimal point in your answer.
