6 weeks left! I don’t think we have ever finished a year in May before, but it was never really my goal. Hannah is keeping us on track and with Nate helping we aren’t dropping as many days as we normally would with random interruptions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>In bible, Joel participates in our family devotions each morning, has school readings, and school memory passages. He also has memory work for children\u2019s class at church. He does well with memory work and doesn’t fuss too much about presenting when he is ready.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In history\/social studies, our main spines are still A Child\u2019s History of the World<\/span> and Usborne Book of World History.<\/span> We continue to use Window on the World<\/span> for country studies and he is still working through Geography Songs<\/span> to learn world geography. We have timeline and currents events on Fridays. We recently started a book on Gladys Aylward, missionary to China.<\/p>\n

Read Alouds for this unit were The White Stallion of Lipizza<\/u>, About Average<\/span>, and we started The Penderwicks<\/span>. We also have selections from\u00a0Aesop for Children<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0104 Poems of Whimsy and Wisdom<\/span>\u00a0each week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>LA follows a weekly pattern. We have a weekly spelling list, cursive assignment, Phonics C<\/span>\u00a0for grammar,\u00a0Wordly Wise B<\/span> for vocabulary, as well as our weekly creative writing assignment. Joel is starting to get better at spelling.<\/p>\n

For school Joel read Timmy Lemmy<\/span>, A Question of Yams<\/span>, Third Grade Detectives Num 4<\/span>, and Third Grade Detectives Num 10<\/span>. He gets additional reading for time since he finishes his assigned reading quickly. Lately he has been reading the Boxcar Children series and Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.<\/p>\n

Science spines are still\u00a0DK Did You Know Science<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0The Story of Inventions<\/span>. He has a weekly experiment from\u00a0Discover and Do: 3rd Grade<\/span> that usually gets done on Saturdays or with Daddy. We also started a unit on weather and started\u00a0DK Eyewonder Weather<\/span>. Joel had a few weather experiments and some growing experiments that overlapped.<\/p>\n

Math is\u00a0Horizons 3<\/span>. Joel does well. Getting to a little bit harder division and still working fractions.<\/p>\n

Joel doesn’t have an extracurricular right now. He does some Prodigy English and Math when we have a bit of extra time. He celebrated his birthday with friends by taking them all to a Monster Truck show and having a sleepover. He will be going to a tech club in April. He also attends a 6 week Good News Club at the elementary once a week.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
