Group time with all 4 (or at least 3)We read about Noah from Genesis in the Bible, daily Psalms, daily from A Child's Garden of Verse, in our Morning Basket time.
We listened to the whole first disk (Chapter 1-7) of The Story of the World because they did NOT want to turn it off. We then talked about the concepts in the first chapter - fertile crescent, the wall of Jericho, nomads to farmers, where the lived, and more.
The grandparents were here this week and so we did not do as much as I would have liked but it was good to spend some time with them. The kids got to do some woodworking projects from Home Depot with Granddad. They got to ask about their dad's history as well as their grandparents history.
We also took a day trip and met some friends at the park in Staunton, VA. This meant lots of time in the car to talk about everything from caves to the golden rule and then great chances to practice the golden rule especially.
We started working on our memory work which will come in a later post.
A-1 individual timeWe did lessons 2 and 3 in First Language Lessons. We started seeing what words from the 100 most used words list A-1 can read without sounding them out.
We did math drills 1's, 2's and 3's addition as well as a short worksheet.
During Quiet Time A-1 is listening the The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
A-K and L-PA-K and L-P worked through lesson 3 of OPG. They also spent time coloring and drawing and doing verbal math facts.
Next week we need to add science, nature walk (in a more formal way), artist and music.
In an effort to not spend to much time blogging my goal is to spend less than 30 minutes start to finish on any post.
Post time: Start - 9:25
End - 9:57
Total - 32 minutes
