This has been an interesting week - we have schooled in spurts, mostly at night. I haven't been feeling 100% all week, and it's still cold rainy, so things have just not been going according to schedule. In fact I'm not 100% sure how much we got done this week, but I'm okay with that. Next week we will try to catch up, but I have quite a bit of stuff to do so we'll see how it goes.
Math - T did either 9 or 12 pages this week {not sure as I said above} We finished on page 41 this week.
Reading - T has improved greatly and is now reading out loud for reading. We only did 2 stories this week in reading, and the 4 workbook pages that accompanied them.
Grammar - T only did 4 pages of Climbing to Good English 1 this week. We are now completed through page 17. I am still considering skipping ahead in this book.
Science - We didn't get any formal lessons done, but we did observe our caterpillars eat and grow and turn into chrysalises. So far 4 of the 5 have turned, and 1 is still eating and growing. We also observed the growth of our plants that we planted last week, and watered them daily.
Handwriting - We did 1.5 pages of handwriting this week. DD is feeling the increased writing demands and complaining her hand hurts, so we took it easy this week. We have completed through page 10 and part of page 12.
Spelling - We skipped Spelling this week - since she placed farther ahead in the book I'm okay with it.
World Geography - We have dropped the R&S World Geography book. It just wasn't working for us at all. I am considering starting the Tour the Continents I had planned for second grade now, and working through it slowly, then spreading our Tour a Country program over second and third grade.
Manners & Health - We did 1 lesson this week, the topic was respecting other's personal space.
Girl Scouts - We didn't work on anything for Girl Scouts this week - I might try to squeeze in a Journey Session tomorrow if T is willing.
