Thursday, Week 2
Yesterday was "enrichment" day. Both boys took the leap and are now buying milk from the cafeteria. (if only I can now convince them to also buy their lunches?!) Both had a good day, and are excited about a planned field trip in a couple weeks to see a stage version of Charlotte's Web with their classes. The evening was full of fall ball practice. I got to meet a friend for lunch, and then do a little shopping. I was excited to find 2 pairs of shark pajamas for the boys (especially since they need pajamas.)

Today, both boys:

copywork about sharks
math workbook pages (C - 3 subtraction pages, N - 4 pages about numbers 11 & 12)
Ninja Turtle coloring page
watched a dvd from Netflix: Island of the Sharks
Colin read Daniel and the Lions to me and N. We discussed the story and the fact it was from the Bible.
played a card game of SNAP

C:
word search and then found "secret" word with uncircled letters
1 page from spelling workbook
oral spelling test. He missed 2 words, so he copied those words 5 times each
read (out loud) first chapter of Around the World in 80 Days (beginning reader)

N:

worksheet matching upper & lower case letters

Their dad was able to come home this afternoon, so both boys ran some errands with him while I took L to run errands I needed to do. Extra time with their father is definitely one reason we homeschool. If they were in traditional school, they would have missed seeing their dad at all today, since he headed back out for a late sales call after errands.

About Us
I'm a homeschooling mom with 3 wonderful kids! My boys are 6 & 7 and working at a 1st and 2nd/3rd grade level. We use Catholic Heritage Curriculum loosely, with lots of our own ideas added in. My boys attend an enrichment program one day per week during the traditional school year, which gives me extra time with my toddler daughter, and the chance to run some errands without my active boys.

This blog was a running list of what we do each school-day, but I tend to post here sporadically now. We usually school on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday to take DH's days off into account.
