Cameron's interest in the Shidonni World website has continued so we paid for a months worth of Shidonni Pro which gives him more privileges and options. He has sent one of his characters on an exchange to Israel which has been very interesting. He's also racking up a lot of awards for various missions etc.
Cameron is continuing with the library summer reading scheme and particularly enjoying Geronimo Stilton books. 1 more to go to get the medal. When he reached the 4th book he received a voucher for a free DVD rental and he chose the first season of the Simpsons which he's really been enjoying.
We went to our most local HE group on Friday and had a pretty OK time. It was some one's birthday so there was a treasure hunt and games that I didn't quite get the gist of - something about murder in the dark - there was a lot of screaming anyway! The weather was nice for once so there was plenty of opportunity for playing in the park but D, Cameron's best friend, wasn't there so Cameron was a bit disappointed.
The maths work has been going really well. Cameron is coming on leaps and bounds and is way more confident about how to work things out by himself. We've also been doing some science. Learning about solids and liquids this week we did a few experiments about how things dissolve and how to speed up the process etc. We had a race with coffee powder added to hot/cold water to see which one dissolved fastest. I remembered seeing an experiment on someone else's blog ages ago about doing this with lollies so we had a go at that - Cameron was very clever and got dibs on the lolly in the cold water because he knew that one would be bigger than the one in hot!
