Monday was Martin Luther King, Jr. day but we had school anyway. Brian ended up being home due to an ice storm. Samuel wanted Brian to do math with him so Brian did get involved some. :) We listened to the "I have a dream" speech--some of it--and then the kids created their own dream. It was pretty funny to see what some of them put.
Legos are what consumes the boys' time right now!
Nathan started working with the balance this week in math and that seems to be more fun than the usual math lesson. :)
We continued our inclusion of art, music and gym this week. It is still a hit. All the kids participate so well in all three. In gym, the kids tried out leg circles, planks and crab walks. In music, each child tried playing the song we're learning on the recorder (Dragonflies). It's only 2 different notes but I was impressed everyone wanted to try playing it alone. History and science are uneventful. Lily got a 84% on her English test this week so that was a big improvement from her reviews--it's a tough subject for her. She is taking a science class about birds and owl pellets right now and seems to enjoy that. Next week will be shorter because we will take a day off for my birthday!
