Sunday starts "Elephant Week" for Grandson_4. We'll have a short conversation about elephants, and then Monday through Friday, we'll try to view videos and read read applicable books.

We do these themed weeks for GS4, but Grandson_3 also enjoys them.

MON: introduction ... basic facts about elephants, emphasis on seeing live action video taken in their natural settings as well as zoos. Different kinds of elephants. Possibly including extinct kinds of elephant. Size & weight.
TUE: Where do elephants live? Location / temperature & climate / environment (what else lives there)
WED: Elephants' social lives + group structures / elephant reproduction / life cycles
THU: What do elephants eat? What do they drink? And (important for little boys) do elephants poop?
FRI: What eats elephants? This is also the time for silliness such as do elephants understand Spanish? and also an elephant related art project if we didn't get to it earlier in the week.
