24 weeks down of 4th grade.<\/p>\n

We start off with our Girl’s Ministry work as our morning devotion and we work on our memory work together. We also have a devotional book called Starting Strong<\/b> that we use on Fridays. Then Hannah has her own memory work and bible reading again when we do her school work. We’ve been working through David (1 and 2 Samuel) and into Solomon (1 Kings) this unit.<\/p>\n

In history\/social studies, I was a little worried that some of the topics would be difficult, and they are, but we’ve been having good discussions about things. We moved up through reconstruction, WWI, and into the depression. We are starting to reap the rewards of our timeline that we build on year after year. Hannah likes seeing the things that happen at the same time and she has some pretty full centuries. Our spines are Landmark History of the American People<\/u>, Encyclopedia of American History<\/u>, and The Usborne World Wars<\/u>. We have a selection of American themed songs in Wee Sing America<\/u> each week. This unit was also Hannah’s fire Research Project assignment – she did her report on Texas and I think she did a great job.<\/p>\n

This unit we finished Little Britches<\/u> and Cheaper By The Dozen<\/u> as read alouds. We started Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry<\/u> and have selections from Oxford Illustrated Book of American Children’s Poems<\/u>.<\/p>\n

Hannah is growing as a speller and creative writer and sometimes spends extra times expanding on the assignment for the week. She was supposed to come up with a sci-fi dialog last week and ended up writing a short play for her and her brothers to perform. \ud83d\ude42 We so spelling with Sequential Spelling 2<\/u>, grammar with Grammar Ace<\/u>, vocabulary with Wordly Wise 3000, Book 4<\/u>, and have a cursive assignment each week. She has been working on memorizing the Gettysburg Address and we have a couple weeks left to get it just right.<\/p>\n

Hannah has been reading her own readers these days so I’ve been having to catch up after she finishes them to see what they were all about. She read George Washington Carver<\/u>, Thimble Summer<\/u>, and Gone Away Lake<\/u> this unit.<\/p>\n

As usual we lag in science although the science spine we are using, Mysteries and Marvels of Science<\/u>, is really a great science book and very interesting. We just do science as an afternoon activity and usually find other things to do on afternoon a few days a week. We are still in a magnetism unit for experiments with Discover and do Level 4<\/u> and TOPS #33 Magnetism<\/u>.<\/p>\n

Hannah is starting long division and keeping that pesky decimal point in the correct spot but is doing ok with math. I’m still pretty happy with the spiral approach that Horizons 4<\/u> uses and seems to be a good fit for my kids. It only goes through 6th grade so I will have to change curriculum when we are ready for pre-algebra.<\/p>\n

Extras as so fun! We have weekly piano, park date, Girl’s Ministry. We attended a play, participated in an Arts Festival, and a Spelling Bee with our homeschool group. We had a couple of egg hutns for Easter. Hannah has started volleyball again this season and wanted me to be her coach again. I like this group of girls and am excited to start games in a couple weeks. We went on a campout at the Diltz place and participated in a service project with our church.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
