When I started going over my lesson plans for this past week on Sunday, I thought it would be a nice easy week, with a few fun things in there. I should know better than to think things like that.
Monday
The day started out great, I took Annika to vision therapy, where she did excellent as usual. Then she requested Cheesecake Factory for lunch, how could I resist. It was yummy. After she and I got home we started in our lessons for the day. Annika a math lesson and started step 8 In All About Spelling 2. Everett started step 12 in All About Spelling 3, completed Exercise 1 of Unit 3 in Junior Analytical Grammar which started the pronoun unit. He later completed a math lesson while I was at gymnastics with Lucas. Before gymnastics Lucas read a few stories from his All About Reading book to Everett.
Tuesday
I woke up and had no voice what so ever and called off school. Everett took it upon himself to do 3 loads of towels (washed, dried, folded and put away) and then took care of the dishwasher and dusted my room.
Wednesday
Was bowling day, and although I still couldn't talk very well, we had a blast. I finished the day bowling a 201, the best I've ever done.
Thursday
We started to get back on track. Annika did a math lesson, finished step 8 in spelling and did a lesson on the Reading Eggs website. Everett did a math lesson, exercise 2 of unit 3 in grammar and completed step 12 in spelling. Lucas did 2 math lessons with me. My voice was still a little off so Everett said he would teach Lucas his All About Reading lesson, which Lucas loved. Everett did an amazing job teaching it.
Friday
I had planned for this day to be an art day, so we packed into the car and drove to the local pottery studio where the kids painted some projects they were unable to finish during their camp last summer. The studio owner is an amazing lady who just adores the kids, she was really excited to see them all and is looking forward to them in camp this summer. After art was over we went to Skinny Dip and had some frozen yogurt.
Saturday
Annika and Everett each did a math lesson, Lucas did two math lessons and then it was time for science. Lucas just kind of watches when we do science as I require no formal science from him. Everett and Annika completed week 20 of Real Science Odyssey Chemistry level 1. They learned how to draw Electron Dot Structures and then we did another experiment on capillary action. Next week we start Unit Six.

Please tell Everett that I have a bit of a scratchy throat today and I've left all my laundry in the hallway. I'm waiting! ;-)
Yummy! Cheesecakes Factory! Your lunches are making me look bad. Baby Boy thinks he's getting gormet when I slice lettuce and tomatoes for the ham and cheese sandwiches! LOL
Looks like a full and busy week even with a day off. And I agree--Cheesecake Factory=yummy. Great way to start off your week.
