Thursday & Friday, Week 8
Yesterday a friend of the boys was off school, and she needed a place to spend the afternoon, so we all went to the AZ Natural History Museum and the Museum of Youth. She was excited to accompany the boys on one of their "field trips!" It's fun to watch C read the plaques this year when we visit places.

C completed 6 math workbook pages and N completed 4 over the last 2 days. N read another BOB book. C read his Faith & Life chapter and completed 2 workbook pages. C did a page in his spelling workbook and didn't do well on an oral spelling test (the list had "oa" and "ol" words mixed together which confused him. ie. soap and hold)

C did quite a bit of independent reading. N enjoys cutting paper at every opportunity. He made an interesting treasure box and also a collage of houses. The boys completed a couple coloring pages. N did a copywork page on the letter "Q."

N needs to practice counting in the teens, and recognizing those numbers. He can recognize the numbers 1 - 10, and 20 and above, but struggles with 13 - 19. Much of this will be done on the fly, when the opportunity is there.

C memorized another memory gem for the week.

We're planning on attending a "Health & Wellness Fair" tomorrow and I may decide that is schooling enough and call it a week. We are starting a unit on the human body next week.

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.
