Homeschool Day 5/24

 7 year-old

  • Math
    • Mathusee Alpha
  • Language Arts
    • All About Spelling - this was our first day with this and it was definitely time to start spelling.  He probably could've done this a few months ago with no problem.
    • Handwriting without Tears
  • Reading
    • He read an Easy Reader book to me
  • Sonlight B (history, Bible, literature)
    • We did the ancient Sumerian cylinder seal project from the Hands-on History box.  He made a cylinder from clay, imprinted the clay with writing and we baked the clay.  When you roll the cylinder onto a sheet of wet clay, it should imprint the wet clay with the writing.  We absolutely love the Hands-on History box
  • He rode his bike outside and we walked to the park
14 year-old
  • Geometry (Mathusee)
  • Bible reading (2 Samuel)
  • Easy Grammar 10th Grade Grammar workbook
  • Bookshark J (History of Science)
    • Our second day with this curriculum.  So far, so good.  She is enjoying the book The Thief (by Megan Whalen Turner)
  • Biology
    • Ellen McHenry's Protozoa
    • We looked at Volvox colonies under the microscope. These are fascinating - especially how they form a wall around the colony with individual Volvox cells
  • She also went outside/went to the park
College students
  • They start school back up again on Monday and we are not prepared.  Oldest is taking Art History for the first summer session and Kid #3 is taking Drawing 1.  I still need to buy their school supplies
