Another good day!! Even if we did do math after dinner! I was determined that we WOULD get the whole schedule done! :)
Today Samantha made a mobile about the 7 days of creation. Then we hung up a bulletin board set with all the planets on our dining room wall. Currently that includes Pluto. When we get to that chapter in the Astronomy book we'll learn about why Pluto is no longer considered a planet! For now, Samantha still thinks it is.
Matthew is learning the sound of the letter P. Plus we reviewed all the other sounds he's learned. HE's doing great. We had done some of this before Hannah was born and he was really driving me nuts with attention span. Amazing how a few months can make such a difference! Both days he's done great and he gets all his lessons done and is begging for more!
Samantha did her first lesson in Latin today. We're using Latina Prima. Then the rest of the day she was walking around say Salvete! to everyone. :) |

The mobile sounds very cool! Fun! Great job getting through the schedule. My girls will be getting a little taste of Latin with some Latin primers (very simple and informal) in a month or so. I decided to wait until we get to Ancient Rome in History to introduct that.
