Just a couple of pictures from our last two weeks of school before the break!
Sissi working on her last Rod and Staff book, what will I do with her after this :)???? She's on a roll!
Gwangi, working on his handwriting. When we return from break he's going to start learning cursive!
Krypto has a few more weeks and he's done with his last handwriting workbook. They are growing up so fast.
*** Added note. Krypto's handwriting still needs some work. I've printed off some sample pages from Handwriting Without Tears and we're going to try that style and see if it makes a difference.
Both Gwangi and Sissi moved up this past week. Sissi is in her last Rod and Staff workbook (I just added the next two in the series to our Amazon Wish List...this girl loves school!) Gwangi is in Book 5 of Explode the Code and reading and spelling like a champ!
One of our maps from a week ago.
We were learning about "Fifteen Miles on the Erie Canal."
In the past two weeks we covered John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, the "Five Civilized Indian Nations", Louis Braille, John Audubon, the childhood of Queen Victoria, and Fredric Chopin.
Have a great Fall Break (all of you that take one)...we'll be doing some fun family days, Indy will be working on his Greek and getting his applications in for his PhD next year, I'll be doing some school prep work for the rest of the year...oh, and I printed off a lapbook that we're going to do all about Election 2012. Guess this homeschool mom can't just "take a break" :)...there always has to be something to do!
