May. 16, 2006 - School Stuff... summer time callin'

I found that I'm allergic to the old book I got from the library for our read aloud.  I get a HORRIFIC headache whenever I read it.  Its awful, a major sinus headache that wraps around to my ears.  Ugh.  We shan't be reading "The Reb and the Redcoats" anymore!  I guess I'll be looking for a new read aloud for tomorrow.  Since we have art & writing co-op today, we won't be doing read aloud today anyway.

We're all in that mode of "its so nice outside" that we are having issues getting school done.  That, and since its finally so nice, I'm getting house stuff done (the hall AND the sitting room are wall papered!) and that takes time.  The house is even mostly clean at the moment!  Whoa... cool beans!:) 

However, although the structured Konos type "group" stuff isn't getting done at the moment, the kids all have their interests that they are all reading about ~ often on their own time as well as school time.  That, and they's all doing math religiously (Thank the LORD for the "ACE" teaching videos on algebra from the library!!!!)
