Here's the rundown of the school work we accomplished this week.
Everett:
Grammar: Growing with Grammar 5, Unit 2 on nouns was completed. He gaining a lot of confidence in his ability to understand grammar and has come to enjoy it.
Spelling: All About Spelling 2 steps 7-11 were completed he's found his groove in this program and so far it's working well.
Writing: We took a break from Writing this week, although he did finish watching disc one of Student Writing Intensive A, he's excited to start disc two next week and begin the story sequence soon.
Reading: He began and finished reading Return to Howliday Inn the next in the Bunnicula series he's really enjoyed. I'm still amazed at how his love of reading grew over the past few months.
Math: Teaching Textbooks lessons 44-47 were completed. Factors have been rough, but I think he's finally got it.
Annika:
Language Arts:Explode the Code Book 2 is almost finished and she's done really well with it. We have decided to put HeadSprout on hold for now, because it's gotten a bit ahead of her and is starting to frustrate her. Saxon Phonics 2 lessons 1-4 were completed and she's really enjoying it. There has been a little bit of coding introduced and so far she likes it a lot.
Spelling: All About Spelling level 1 steps 13-16 were completed. We have decided to finish level 1 of AAS and then put it on hold until we see how Saxon phonics and spelling goes. She is really enjoying the Saxon, and if spelling is included I don't want to over do it.
Math: Saxon Math 2 has been just the ticket for her in math. She completed lessons 26-29 this week and looks forward to math and even the timed fact drills.
Lucas:
Preschool: He's completed his My first book of Coloring and My first book of Mazes. He's really looking forward to the My first book of Cutting and others that are coming up next.
Subjects we all do together.
History: We watched the last two episodes on disc 3 of Liberty's Kids and I began reading Ben and Me as a history read aloud. So far the story is a good one and the dvds are always a big hit.
Science: We wrapped up our Earth unit by observing out biosphere and discussing it's similarities and differences with our planet. We also did our Mars experiment but must watch it over the next few days as we wait for the rust to form.
Tune in next week for our week 27 review.

Sounds like a great week (minus the shots!) ;)
In regards to your question about the Great Wall kit, ... I bought it last summer (I think from Amazon). It is put out by Educational Insights. It's been fun, but we're *still* working on it! ;)
Sounds like a good week! I love Kumon workbooks - my dd is using My Book of Easy Crafts right now.
Looking forward to reading about your Mars experiment!
Sounds like a great week:)
I'm glad the shots didn't ruin the week. You are the second recommendation I've had for the dragon movie.
