Woohoo. We finished the last 6 weeks of our second half of world history. Catching up to modern times and the most recent wars.<\/p>\n

For bible we read through 1st and 2nd Timothy and she memorized Psalm 100 during this unit. We also finished a book called Window on the World<\/u> that gives a snapshot of many of the people groups \/ cultures around the world.<\/p>\n

In history\/social studies, we finished our spines – Child’s History of the World<\/u> and Usborne’s World History<\/u>. We’ve been in them for two years now, so it felt good to close them up. \ud83d\ude42 We also completed our spread out readings of Aesop for Children<\/u> and our poetry book, Child’s Garden of Verses<\/u>.<\/p>\n

Our Read Alouds were really great. We finished up a book on missionary to China, Gladys Aylward. Then we watched the movie “Inn of the 6th Happiness” which was based on her with a little extra drama to make it more interesting. We also read Kildee House<\/u> and The Little Riders<\/u> and two wonderful missionary biographies called And the Word Came with Power<\/u> and Catching Their Talk in a Box<\/u>. Very enjoyable!<\/p>\n

Reading and language finished nicely. We completed our two workbooks, Phonics C and Wordly Wise B. Hannah read Third Grade Detectives #10<\/u>, The Last Little Cat<\/u>, Tornado<\/u>, and Jake Drake: Bully Buster<\/u>.<\/p>\n

We are chugging along in science. We have about 3 weeks left, so I’m just going to keep going with it to finish up and then go straight into Science D when we finish. We have been making up a little bit at a time so we may catch up before the end of 3rd grade. We’ve been doing a unit on big machines – ships, tractors, building roads, oil rigs, etc and our experiments have been about Electricity and Circuits.<\/p>\n

Math is going a little better. We do 3 worksheets a week with drills on the other days. Still working through Horizons 3.<\/p>\n

– Our main extracurricular is piano. As it gets harder, we have had to deal with persevering and practicing instead of just “getting it the first time”. A good lesson!
\n– We are also loving Girl’s Ministries. Hannah received two merits this summer and is about to receive a third. We also got her sash ordered, so we’ll have to do some sewing soon.
\n– Our groups have started back up so we have a weekly park day and a monthly elementary age outing as well as random field trips. Fun to see our friends again.
\n– Also, visits from cousins and friends, a wedding, and birthday parties all keep us busy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
