Last week of School!

We wrapped up our school year this week!  Every day we finished at least one subject so by the time Friday got here, we barely had work to do.  We played a game and watched the last episode of Lord of the Flies. I always give a gift for the 1st and last days of school so he enjoyed the fun summer treats and the cash!  Nathan is done with sophomore year and it is flying by!!  This summer is mostly a break for him but he does have online drivers ed coursework and then driving with us before his driving time with an instructor this fall.  

 

Week 36

We had a full week again and are so close to wrapping it all up.  We have been doing a quick skim of the human body lessons in Biology.  We also finished our read aloud.  Nathan reviewed Lord of the Flies as a 4 star read and I said I'd give it 1.  I'm not a fan but we are going to check out the new series on Netflix and see if we like it.  Nathan wrapped up his literature reading but will read one more piece next week! Nathan also joined us for some steps at the arboretum on a nice evening.  Nathan decided to climb a few trees while we were there. 

 

Week 35

Just Cinders sitting on Sam's work pile because we don't have any pictures from our school week!  We kept busy and on schedule to finish things up by the end of the school year. We did finish our Bible curriculum so that's one thing off our list these next 2 weeks!!

Week 34

Nathan finished his last art project this week!  He had two projects that he really enjoyed but one was not a win.  We'll see what we can find for next year!

Nathan also wrapped up his research paper and I let him have a few days off from writing before we start a new paper next week.  I think we can get through one more before the school year wraps up.  Otherwise, we kept up with all our other subjects and I'm going to be preparing for the final weeks to finish things up.

 

Week 33

This week, Nathan got closer to finishing his writing and art projects.  We finished our taxonomy chapters in Biology and dissected a flower.  We had a half day of school on Friday to leave me plenty of time to take care of Sam's wisdom tooth recovery!!

 

Week 32

This week was a long, rainy one!  We had our 2nd to last meeting with our supervising teacher and turned in credits and grades.  The end is in sight!  Nathan is still working on his research paper and his lighthouse project.  Otherwise, we are just keeping up with everything else.  It's been busy but I can tell we are nearing the end of many subjects!  

 

Week 31

We started this week on a Tuesday because of Easter break.  We've finished all the info about writing a research paper so Nathan will be starting to write next week!  He continued building his lighthouse and that seems to be going well.  

In other news, Samuel started his first job and Oliver got ready for rain!!  We have 6 weeks of school left!!  It's going so fast.
