All kids have VBS this week, so the 1st grader won't do school. It would be too much for him. Last week was a five-hour long ballet intensive every day/all week, so no one was able to do school last week.

11th Grader

- Language Lessons for the High School Student

Getting ready for our next round of books for World Geography: Hatchet (Canada) and Born Free (Africa). Hatchet is an audio book, so that will be a nice break. I also want to listen to it! Born Free is an excellent book - my oldest read it in high school and very much enjoyed it. It's about a female lion in Africa who spends a big portion of her life with people.
Next literature selection will most likely be Animal Farm by George Orwell. I would like to include another book that includes Communism in its setting/theme.
I picked up a number of picture books about the Saints from the library for the 1st grader.
