We finished up week 12 last week (ok so we had a couple things left to do yesterday). \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Bible – We reviewed the Sing the Word songs for A-R this morning and Hannah and I did a pretty good job of remembering the verses with their correct references. We’ll finish up the alphabet and then start to memorize some well known prayers and hymns. And try to review every now and then.
\nIn bible reading we’re up through the Israelites making it to the promised land and the continual fall away, come back cycle of the judges.<\/p>\n

In history\/social studies, we studied medieval times through European history up to about 300 years ago (English, French) including missionary stories. Like St Patrick and others who brought the good news of Jesus to Europe. I’ve been enjoying most of the missionary stories, many of which I’ve never heard before. Hannah is so-so on them. Hannah made a beauty mark like the English ladies and also a 4 poster bed like the French ladies.<\/p>\n

For read alouds, we read 100 Dresses, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The Light at Tern Rock, and Beezus and Ramona. The Ramona book took us longer than I thought it would. She has a great attention span, but those chapters were kinda long. She also listens in on Benjamin’s readings and always surprises me with her retention of those stories since its been at least 18 months since we read them for her time through. I have to continually tell her not to give away the ending since it’s Benjamin’s story not her’s.<\/p>\n

As far as reading, she is reading everything. We usually finish the week’s reading in the first day (sometimes two), so I fill in with other things like the Highlights magazine that Grandma bought or other readers. I’m not formally doing handwriting currently, we have a quite a bit of copywork to do and I try to tell her that if she does good on all the writing throughout the day, we don’t have to do handwriting. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn’t. The current plan is to do the 1st grand HWT when we are going through round 2 of the Kinder material. But I might have to pull it in sooner because she gets lazy.<\/p>\n

Science is still pretty exciting. The experiments are so nice and easy and short that its fun to do, but I still have a hard time fitting them in during the week. So . . . daddy sometimes gets to help on the weekend. We moved into the animal kingdom, did some stuff with cells, raised caterpillars and released the full grown butterflies, learned about air, and learned about dish soap.<\/p>\n

I’m still really happy that math goes as easily as it does. We’re on about 110 out of 180 lessons. She is so artsy and abstract (and not me) that I assume she won’t like my favorite subjects. \ud83d\ude42 She seems to pick up the concepts quickly and sometimes does things differently than I would, but gets the right answers and I’m ok with that. She loves to doodle all over her worksheets which drives me crazy. I guess as long as the answers are there and readable, I’ll just have to accept some hearts and swirlies.<\/p>\n

For extras, she and Ben are taking a PE class that is about to be over. We have her signed up for her first “camp” in July with the “Power Brain Training Center”. We won a discount so we’re trying them out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
