Homeschool Wrap Up Week 12

This week started off good and ended as a bust.  Wednesday I had two sick.  Thursday another went down and then so did I!  We stayed in bed Thursday and Friday watching movies. So we did not get much work done at all.  And...Friday morning 15 minutes after Nick left for school he called me.  He was broken down by the side of the road.  I had to pick him up and get him to school.  Art later went and dragged the car home on the trailer.  It would be an expensive fix and may not fix the problem so we are looking for a cheap, reliable car for him to drive.  Teenagers like to think they have independence driving but really it gives the parent independence.  I have to make three trips to town just today.


Bible: We read 3 chapters of the book of John for our Bible lesson.

History: We read lessons 61, 62, and 63 in The Mystery of History Vol 1.

No Geography, Art, or Science.

Music Appreciation: We read the first chapter of Richard Wagner.

Art History: We watched the last HiGasfy video on Impressionism.

Emmie completed 2 lessons in CTC Math and one lesson in AAR.  She also did some copywork.


Lily completed 2 lessons in CTC Math, 2 lessons in her Reading Eggs workbook and 2 days in Lightning Lit working on the story Morning Girl.

Anthony and Christian completed 3 lessons in Robin Hood and math.  We are still working on the steps to writing a Persuasive Essay in Jump In.  They did no spelling this week.  I thought I had Level 7 of AAS, but didn't and had to order it.  It arrived Friday so we can get into spelling this week.


We had babies Monday and Tuesday. 

Monday the girls had gymnastics.

Tuesday was a beautiful day and we spent a lot of time outside and even went to the park for awhile.






 Then we had a 4 H STEM meeting.

Lily took this picture


Wednesday we had Kid's Club (some of us did.)

I cancelled all activities for Thursday and Friday.

Saturday Alex went hunting and got a buck!







I hope you had a great week!


Happy Homeschooling!

My favorite line is about how teens think cars make them independent, but really they make parents independent. :) So true!!!! Here's hoping you find a reliable car sooner rather than later.

I wish you all good health again! We're finally picking up school again after 2 full weeks off due to illnesses and emergencies.
