Homeschool Day 2/3

 Kindergartener

  • We didn't get any school done today.  He played with his Calico Critters, mostly.  After lunch, we did PE.  For PE, I loaded up everyone's bikes on the minivan's bike rack and we drove out to our homeschool friends' neighborhood.  The kids all rode bikes around their neighborhood and the 5 year-old practiced learning how to ride his bike without training wheels.  Then, he played on the playground.  
  • Evening kids' group at church
13 Year-old
  • Algebra 1 review sheet - I need to make sure we are slowing down with algebra and doing the review sheets in Mathusee.  She really needs the review, especially with fractions.  Anytime there is a fraction in an equation, she becomes a deer in headlights.  I think I was pushing her too quickly in math
  • Language Lessons for the Secondary Child - still the "is this going to get any harder" comment
  • She read To Kill a Mockingbird and I read aloud.  She's enjoying To Kill a Mockingbird
  • German together
  • Mystery of History - the Texas War of Independence - I tried to read this with her, but the kindergartener threw a huge fit, so I had to stop and assign her a video to watch instead.  I'm going to find the Alamo movie on streaming and we can watch that together, too. She hung up her timeline figures
  • P.E. - biking with her homeschool friends
  • Confirmation class at church
  • Watch: Amistad
15 Year-old
  • 1 Samuel
  • Algebra 2 - watched the lesson
  • Huckleberry Finn
  • Language Lessons for the High School Student - writing a paragraph
  • Lincoln biography
  • Latin - not sure what she did
  • Biology reading
  • US Government - she watched a video on the Legislative Branch of the US Government.  We went on the Senate's website and watched a video of Senate proceedings, roll call, etc.  She then looked at some of the Senate building's historical artwork and sculptures that have their own section on the Senate's website.
  • Helping at kids' group at church
  • Watch: Amistad
Me
  • I did get to read more of the Gospel of Mark from the Bible.  I'm about halfway through
