Having trouble trying to get it all done?
Feeling inadequate for not being able to
work through every subject everyday?
Good news!!! You don't have to!
We have been having a great time focusing
on math and science for the past few weeks.
Wondering how we could just focus on science
and math?
Well take a look:
Bible study: We read "Science and the Bible" as a group,
along with some great discussions.
copywork: "science" Scriptures
"He stretched out the heavens."
"The heavens declare the glory of God."
writing: We wrote "science" poetry and
space adventurers.
spelling: Oh, so many '"science" words to
choose from.
a-s-t-r-o-n-a-u-t
U-r-a-n-u-s
reading: Each child read "science" library books and sections from
science textbooks to the rest of us.
We also continued having our family read alouds.
art: We drew the solar system and the phases of the moon.
memory work: We memorized the names of the planets, facts concerning
the planets, the speed of light, and a lot of vocabulary words.
Focusing on one or two subjects gives the kids a chance to really
learn what you are trying to teach!
