We're back into the swing of things. Half through the school year. We're pretty much on target with our school goals. Emily is in the 8th grade, but is taking 9th grade math, Algebra I. Whew, that's been tough. She'll be working on it during the summer I'm sure. She's doing really well with all of her other courses. She is taking a science co-op lab course with other homeschoolers in our area. It meets once a month, and is taught by an RN. She has studied bacteria, disection of various specimens, microscope exploration, and other things I can't remember at the moment. Science and history are her favorite subjects. Bethany-Anne is in the 4th grade this year. She just completed her history course, and wants to go right into the 5th grade history. Her favorite subjects are science and language arts. Elijah is in the 2nd grade. He is doing so well with school. He usually gets up early in the morning and starts his work. Then he can have the rest of the day to do what ever he wants. His favorite subjects are math, history, and science, but he also enjoys reading. Jenalee is in Kindergarten this year. However, she finished her K5 work in December, and has begun her 1st grade materials. We're taking it slow, we only do what she feels like doing each day. I want her to enjoy learning, not dread it. She enjoys reading, but her favorite subjects are math and science, and of course art. |
