Wednesday

Wednesday is our day for Classical Conversations.

Today held our usual memory work. In Art, we discusses Rembrandt and drew self portraits. The kids loved this assignment. I may just set them up to do it again this week sometime. In Science we did two experiments that showed the amplititude & frequency of sound vibrations. Very fun stuff!

On a side note, Eli took his hamster for presentations. He began to tell the tale of losing his other hamster (the dog got her) and all the kids were watching the hamster run on her wheel and laughing. He was a little sad the kids weren't listening but the sweet teacher picked up on it and helped him tell the story, tragedy.

In my class we played a geography game, race to find named locations on the map or globe. Nathan LOVED it, which was very unusual for Geo. He usually struggles with Geo and dislikes it as a result. He yelled out "we should do it like this every time!!"

I also have noticed that Joe seems to be a very visual learner. This was something I hadn't before observed, I guess that's the downside to being so close. Anyhow, this sheds light on how I'll be teaching in the future.

Monday

A new week, a new Year! This is our first day in the new school room! We are back to school and I'm remembering to ease into it. Just as important as getting back into academics is quick obedience and staying on task when your brother is getting instruction. This takes a little remembering for the boys.

For now our schedule goes like this:

7:00-9:00 Get Dressed, do chores (Mama sneaking back to bed with my coffee & Bible)

9:00 Bible & Scripture Memory Verse

9:30 Math

10:15 Snack & breathe time

10:30 Language Arts

11:30 Memory Work Review; Geography, History, Science, English, Latin, Math & World Time Line

Noon Lunch

12:30 Story of the World Reading

1:00 Finish up any unfinished work

For the rest of the day we'll play, go for a walk, run errands or clean house. This schedule varies each day, and there is Grace All Over It.

For Today:

Bible Luke 6: 24-36
