Joel is continuing to do fairly well in all subjects for 4th grade. 12 weeks down!<\/p>\n

Family devotions usually go well, we often watch the Bible Project video for the book we have been in for our reading plan. For school, Joel has a book called Talking With Your Kids About God<\/span> and\u00a0a memory passage or two each week along with this Kid\u2019s verses from church or Rangers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>For history and social studies he is continuing in a book called American Indian Prayer Guide<\/span> that highlights different tribes. We have American History: A Visual Encyclopedia<\/span> and The Beginner\u2019s American History<\/span> and every now and then a reading from Landmark History of the American People<\/span> as our spines.\u00a0Each week we have a current events assignment and timeline entries.<\/p>\n

Nate and Joel read The Witch of Blackbird Pond<\/span> and Sign of the Beaver<\/span> as read alouds. Each week they have a selection from A Child\u2019s Introduction to Poetry<\/span>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Language Arts is a chore but he gets it done. We have spelling with Sequential Spelling 1<\/span>, a cursive assignment each week, grammar with The Grammar Ace<\/span>, vocabulary with Wordly Wise 3000, Book 4<\/span>, and usually a creative assignment each week. His readers included Squanto Friend of the Pilgrims<\/span>, The Thanksgiving Story<\/span>, The Courage of Sarah Noble<\/span>, The Bears on Hemlock Mountain<\/span>, and The Secret of the Sealed Room<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Science is pretty fun. He finished up Mysteries and Marvels of Nature<\/span> and then worked through a programming book called Coding with Scratch 3.0<\/span>. He has a weekly reading from DK Findout! Engineering<\/span>. And a weekly experiment with Discover and Do: Level D<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Math is Horizons 4<\/span> and he usually doesn’t need much help with the worksheets.<\/p>\n

Joel doesn’t have an extracurricular right now but of course the big news is his broken collarbone. The doctor is letting it heal naturally since he is still growing. This requires him to be a little more still and he has been having to do his schoolwork with his right hand. Hopefully once he gets out of the sling he’ll be back to being a lefty. We think he will be cleared for bball in January, but just have to wait to see. Other stuff we did this unit includes all the church and Connections activities, weekly Rangers, a church campout and a Ranger campout, and one trip to see cousin Lilly play volleyball.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
