Homeschool Wrap Up Week 25

We were so happy to see the sun this week and were able to spend lots of time outdoors!  We also had a lot of fun diving into our new science curriculum!

Week 25 in our Homeschool

Bible: We read 4 lessons in Know Who You Are and Live Like it Matters.  We should finish it up next week.

Read Aloud: We read 4 chapters of Brady.

Geography: Our country of study for this week was China.  As part of the study we watched a really cute video on Giant Pandas in the wild.

History: We read chapter 1 of Vol 2 of America's Story which was on some of the causes leading up to the Civil War.

Music Appreciation: We completed lesson 3 of Music Appreciation 1 on Bach

Math: Christian finished his book on multiplication and picked up where he left off in MLFLE.  He is still working on practicing his multiplication tables.  Lily, Emmie, and Anthony did 4 lessons of MLFLE.

Language Arts: Anthony and Christian completed 4 lessons in Readers in Residence on Winn Dixie. 

Spelling/Reading: The boys completed Step 8 in AAS Level 5.  Lily completed lesson 27 and 28 in AAR Level 4 and Emmie completed lesson 40 in AAR Level 1.

Science: We started lesson one of Apologia's Exploring Creation with Anatomy and Physiology.  We are following the suggested schedule in the notebooking journals.  We read several pages, started drawing a diagram of a cell and did two Try This experiments. 

Other Activities this Week: 

While waiting for Nick and Alex at a 4 H meeting Monday afternoon, the rest of us went to the park and walked the nature trail and the walking trail.  It was a little of 1.5 miles.  It seemed like forever since we had been on the Nature Trail.  It was a pretty day!

Tuesday the girls had gymnastics and Nick had youth.  Lily has mastered her standing back tuck and Emmie has mastered her round off back handspring.  I would post the videos but I know my internet would not cooperate.  Especially since I have delay right now and all I am doing is typing.

Wednesday we had Kid's Club.

Thursday Lily Emmie and I went back to the park in between the time we had to drop Nick off and head for piano.  It was another pretty day!  Ballet was cancelled.

Friday Nicholas took his road test and is now a licensed driver.  That is a good and bad thing ;)  The car needs a little TLC and hopefully in a few weeks he will be able to take himself back and forth to school.

Saturday we went to Texarkana and went to iJump, an indoor trampoline park that has trampolines, dodge ball, basketball, iNinja course, climbing walls, indoor play area, and more.  They had fun in their hour to play.

I  don't know about you  feel like I've lost an hour!!

I hope you had a great week!

Happy Homeschooling!
