A Full Day

We started at 9:00 a.m. by listening to Rascal by Sterling North. We also did copywork for a passage for just 5 minutes. This wasn't as enthusiastically received as the first copywork, but that is OK.

John continues with enthusiasm as does praying for the Lenape Indians.

We learned more about life on the Thirteen Colonies.

We learned about art that tells stories in history and how they impact society.

Seatwork included a great spelling test by Paul (100%) and grammar. Michael started his new spelling chapter without complaint and grammar. I am liking Nitty Gritty Grammar for quick references and Easy Grammar for more detailed explanations. What a great combo. My kids don't mind grammar at all now that it is just in small doses. What a great plan we have now. The boys read too, but I can't remember what they read.

Then, Mrs. Vincent and Mrs. Stewart came to visit. Lisa wanted me to meet her mom.

Then, the Kinkades came over for about 4 hours, and we had a blast with them. They are such a nice family. We are planning to go to the Aquarium for homeschool day and Philip Foster Farms with them too.

We ended with Math that is going well. I love the practicality of BJU math for Michael. The daily application questions are just what he has needed in his math program.

Now, I am eating dinner and off to Bible Study.
