This week we kept it easy and light so we could do lots around the house to prepare for Matt's visit. We're all very excited and can't wait to see him. He comes in tomorrow (the 5th) and it will have been 70 days since we last saw him.
Everett...
Completed pages 11-13 in his Key to Fractions book and 3 lessons and a quiz in Teaching Textbooks 7. He finished step 8 in All About Spelling level 3, and completed 4 pages in his penmanship book. He spent quite a bit of time reading to his little brother and played board games with both his brother and sister.
Annika...
Had her first progress evaluation in vision therapy and the Dr. was so happy with the progress she's made. She's such a happy kid since starting this therapy. She finally realizes that with the right tools she can learn to be a great reader. She also completed 5 lessons Teaching Textbooks 4 and was so excited to be getting into multiplication more. She did 8 pages in Explode the Code book 4, finished step 3 in All About Spelling Level 2, and completed 4 pages in her penmanship book.
completed 4 lessons in McRuffy math, 8 pages in his penmanship book and 2 lessons in All About Reading Pre-1. His fine motor skills are really coming along. He loves having school time each day and looks forward to it each day.
Next week Matt requested that we plug along with school work while he's here, so he can join in on the teaching and it sounded like a great time to finally bring history and science into the mix. The kids can't wait to start those subjects. So I'm going to plug away tonight and get all the prep work done for next week so we can just open our folders and go!
