Speedy

This week was seriously so fast that it seemed a blur.  We did have a sick child this week--Samuel missed gymnastics because he had a stomach bug.  Thankfully, it was just a quick bug and everyone else has stayed healthy.  We are not taking spring break yet but it seems like everyone else is so it seems weird.  We just keep trucking!  I did start a new board on Pinterest for next year's curriculum ideas.  Fun, fun!!

We started our last chapter of science this week!!  How quickly that went!  We finished the science book but we plan on spending a bit more time on planets.  This week, we read our chapter, got our solar system TAG book out and hung our planets up.

We learned about Kenya this week and made Masai collar necklaces for a souvenir.  

We also started our last artist study (Leonardo da Vinci) so that's winding down and the twins are finishing up their cursive books.  Otherwise, we are making forward progress on all other subjects.  I recently picked a book to read with Samuel, as I point at the word.  The book choice was easy--it was supposed to be something he was interested in so I picked up "Dick and Jane and the Vampire".  Ha ha ha!!  Yes, that's an actual book!!!  So, we've enjoyed reading.

Hunter and Lily were thrilled to have a maze to work on this week--I had no idea they would react so well!  So, I'll have to keep that in mind.  It was just a maze to complete while I stared our reading on Saul/Paul.  In English, they completed a formal thank you letter.  I let them pick the who/what and they wrote that out nicely.  

One more week until spring break!
