Homeschool Wrap Up Week 9

I thought I would have time to get this finished Saturday before we left for State Fair, but that didn't happen.

Week 9 in Our Homeschool

Bible: We finished up the Answers For Kids series.  We had reviewed Bible Study Guide For All Ages over the summer and picked up where we left off in the series.  We are on the first packet, lessons 1-26 and worked on lessons 7 and 8 on Joseph and His Brothers.

Read Aloud: We read 3 chapters of YWAM's Milton Hershey.  In the evening before bed we are on Book 5 of The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place.

History: We completed lesson 13 in America's Story about Life on the Home Front.

Science: We started Lesson 7 in Apologia Human Anatomy on Life in the Blood.

Music Appreciation: We completed chapter 14 on Brahms Lullaby.

Spelling/Reading: The boys finished Step 24 in AAS Level 5.  Emmie completed lessons 8, 9, and 10. 

Language Arts: Christian and Anthony finished disc 1 of SWI A learning about banned words and creating a title.  Lily completed 3 lessons in Hake/Saxon Grammar and Emmie completed 3 lessons in LLFLE.

Math: They completed 3 lessons in MLFLE.

Other Activities this Week:

Tuesday:

 Nick and Alex had a 4 H meeting and picked up our exhibits from District.  We had two blue ribbons we didn't know about when we were there.  Christian's waterfall photo won 1st and Emmie's candle won 1st.  They were excited about that!

The girls had gymnastics.  Christian was supposed to have a soccer game, but it started down pouring during gymnastics so it was cancelled.  We saw this pretty rainbow.

Wednesday was Kid's Club and Emmie and Lily stayed for Children's Choir.  Lily just watched.

Thursday Emmie had dance and Lily had Physical Therapy.  She wont need to go back unless she starts hurting again, but needs to do her exercises at home for the next month.

Christian had a soccer game.  It may have been his last one, not 100 percent sure this year.  For some reason they did not schedule any tournaments this year.  I think it's sad and the children get cheated.  We used to play 10-12 games a season and this year only played 5.  Our coaches are working on trying to get one more game.

Friday we went to Grandview for a STEM co-op.  The program was on Conservation and they made Wood Duck houses, one per family but two for mine.  Anthony and Christian worked together and Alex and the girls worked together. 

Saturday Art and Alex made a grooming stand for the the goats and we got everything ready to go to State Fair.  The girls went to a birthday party.  We left the house around 7:30 and got to Little Rock around 9:30.  Art dropped the 4 younger children and I off at the hotel and took Nick and Alex to get the goats settled in at the fair.  I checked us in and went to the rooms I reserved two weeks ago to find out that they had made a mistake on our room type and gave us 2 rooms that had one kind size bed.  There were no other rooms available.  So we called the hotel up the hill and they had rooms so we walked (thankfully it had finally stopped raining) and got settled in.  We did not get to sleep until 12 and had to set the alarm for 5:30 am.  The rest of our fair adventure will be in a separate post and in next week's wrap up.

Trailer all finished.

I hope you had a great week!

Happy Homeschooling!
