Home Stretch...

As of today, we have about two weeks left of school for Jayden before we take our break from curriculum. So we'll finish up this week, go to the beach next week, do the last week of school the week after the beach, and then head to Birmingham on the way to Mississippi State! Then when we return I'll introduce Jayden to our plans for the fall. Grace and Julianna are right on track for finishing up around November or so. I love it when everything comes together just right!

This week, we are still trying to read Romeo and Juliet and Charlotte's Web... I might just turn them in and start again with the two of them after we get back from Birmingham. We just aren't having the time to read chapters right now. We are also taking a small break from memorizing right now... we'll start that back up pretty soon with Awana verses instead of poems and hymns. Jayden and Grace are both in Sparks and Julianna is in Cubbies now, which means she has one verse per week she is supposed to learn.

As far as other books, here's the docket for this week...

Owl Moon
Stone Soup
Papa Piccolo
Follow the Drinking Gourd
and they convinced me to get Little Babaji again :)

When we get back from the beach we'll start our science notebook on leaves/trees. And I may or may not take a notebook for them to fill in during our beach trip... maybe one thing per day... we'll see :)
