Thanksgiving Week

 



I had planned a couple days of school this week but Samuel ended up catching a nasty stomach bug. We ended up just taking the week off. We’ve enjoyed the time off to decorate for Christmas, sleep in (the boys, at least) and prepare for a few weeks of school before the next break!!

Week 12






This week must have been exhausting because I got a lot of pictures of kids sleeping with pets. The boys finished their art class! We started a new read aloud, which has been a nice change. Just a couple more days of school until Thanksgiving break. The most exciting event of the week was the big birthday!! Hunter and Lily are 20! I can barely believe it!!

Week 11




 The boys had 2 science labs this week so that was exciting.  I did one with them.  We made a robot hand.  Brian did the other with them and it was some sort of walking “robot”.  Nathan completed Level 8 Barton but I didn’t have the certificate and I already returned the book.  Whoops!  So, he just smiled for me and got his prize (a computer game).  They also had an art class at the homeschool building this week.  They seem to enjoy that a lot so we’ll have to sign up for more of those.  We finally finished our 1st read aloud of the year.  We will be changing up Language Arts next week so that will be fun.  We do have a short week next week but more on that next time.

Week 10






Halloween week! We did pumpkins on Sunday with my niece, the kids had art class Monday and on Tuesday we did just math and read aloud before Halloween fun! Samuel got his license on Tuesday, as well. Finally, we had some regular days the rest of the week. It didn’t feel like a productive week but I guess we’re entering that season!
