I attended our homeschool network meeting last night. It was great to see so many new faces! The topic was on building and organizing a homeschool library. I was also able to get information on record keeping for homeschooling in California. I have been busy this morning getting all of that in order.
Scripture Memorization:
We are memorizing verses by listening to "Sing the Word: A to Z" . We listen to it in the car and with a little coaching, can recite (A) Romans 3:23, (B) Acts 16:31, (C) Col 3:20, (D) Mat 7:12, (E) Proverbs 20:11, (F) Isa 43:1. We still have quite a way to go, but enjoy this CD for learning scripture.
Math:
The boys continue to do worksheets in Singapore Earlybird 2B. Addition. They are doing a great job on the worksheets, but still need to practice writing the numbers. Both boys will write the numbers backwards, if they do not have an example to follow.
(Funny note: ‘A’ debated with me yesterday that numerals came in upper and lower case!)
Phonics:
Explode the Code Worksheets. ‘A’ is in book 2, ‘R’ is almost done with book 1
Reading
‘A’ read the whole "Green Eggs and Ham" Book. ‘R’ read about 1/3 of "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish"
Art
Artistic Pursuits, Lesson 12. We learned the difference between ‘shape’ and ‘form’. The boys created the form of an animal. ‘R’s is a cat; ‘A’s is a dog…
