Everett managed to do 1 Grammar test as a review. I think he has 2 more before we hit the new material. He also started Step 1 in All About Spelling Level 5, this one will take us a while as it's like a recap of all we did in Level 4. He watched a lesson on his IEW writing class DVDs and started working on a story chart outline. He's finally back in MUS Pre-Algebra after a lot of gap filling and did a few math pages. He is excited to be working with exponents. He also watched the first lesson of LFC A and did an activity sheet and played on Headventure land to help work on the vocabulary of the lesson. Annika joined him for the first part of a science lab on building a cell model out of Sculpey clay and Plaster of Paris, they'll finish it next week.
Annika finished up her paragraph which was about summarizing a one paragraph story. She did quite a few math pages working on multi-digit multiplication and is about 5 lessons away from finishing MUS Gamma. She also celebrated her 12th birthday.
Here's some photos of Ev and Anna working on the clay organelles for their cell models.
Lucas was the sickest this week and just did a penmanship page where he learned to make cursive lower case Ts and then did a few math pages. He's working on single digit subtraction and loves the was Mr. Demme and the blocks from MUS work to show this.
For history we just did some catching up on our timelines. We also took a day to go enjoy nature. We went to a local park and gathered leaves we can use to make a craft for Thanksgiving. The kids loved it and seemed to enjoy looking for the brightest colored leaves. They also had fun playing at the playground.
Next week will be mostly a fun week doing since we have the holiday to look forward to.
