April Week 1 Spring Break

For Spring break I've worked in the garden, done some home organization and played games with the boys. We also attended a few science sessions at the library, learning about sound waves, fossils and space.

Our challenge for the week was to see how many board & card games we could play. As of now we're up to 19. It's been a fun way to have a focus and challenge over the week.

tues-thursday

A new week, a week without CC classes. This was a delight, change for our family.

We worked through the story of Abraham up to Moses and Aaron. The stories of their lives, the promises God made to them and how He was always, always faithful. We also worked on memory verses.

We're reading through Paddle to the Sea by Holling C. Holling, mapping Paddle's journey.

We reviewed CC weeks for Cycle 1.

We reviewed Geo for Cycle 1.

Math: The boys are pressing forward in their lessons in Math

We read some Story of the World that correlated with our CC History.

For Language Arts we're pushing through FLL & WWE
