Well, it finally happened.  We were able to sit down and have a lesson.  We'll it really wasn't a lesson.  Today was more of a "review" on JOrdan's part so I could get an idea of what she knows well and what she doesn't.  

  Today we tackled Week one, Day 2 in LAH-Kindergarden by Ann Ward.   We started with the Pledge of Allegience, then "calendar time".  Jordan had some trouble remembering the days of the weeks.  But she identified the date on the calendar fairly easily, and was able to tell me what the date tomarrow will be and the date yesterday was.

Then we did "bible time", and she colored pictures of the sun, moon, and stars while I read to her from the book of Genesis about days 1,2, and 4.  She easily answered questions regarding what the light was called (day) and the darkness was called (night), etc.

Then we reviewed the phonetics "a", "d", and "c" and practised handwriting the letters.  She does have very pretty writing as long as she remains focused and pays attention to her work.

I could tell she was getting restless from staying in the chair for so long, so we took a break while I worked on folding laundry and made dinner, and she went into her room to listen to books on tape.  

After dinner we finished up "schoolwork", and reviewed colors and sorted items by color.  She had no problem with naming all of the colors, but didn't know the primary colors or why they were known as primary colors.  Then we finished up by counting to 100, counting to 100 by 5's, by 2's, and by 10's.  She had no problem counting by 10, and a little trouble counting by 5's, but really struggled with counting by 2's.  It took her a while to figure out that 12 comes after 10 and 14 comes after 12.  But after we worked through it she was just fine, and counted by 2's again with very little trouble. 

We then closed the book until tomarrow and Daddy took the girls outside to play, since the sun has gone down and it's not so hot. (It may be below 100 by now).

The rest of the day really did not go as planned.  

Since we had company over for dinner, and they stayed rather late last night, I woke up extremely tired and dragging when hubby's alarm clock went off.   With then getting to bed so late last night I expected them to  sleep in, but they woke up as hubby was leaving for work.

Since the girls were up, I decided to go ahead and go to the store for weekly groceries before it got to hot to be driving in an old truck without an air conditioner.  We were ready and out the door by 8:00, and got home sometime around 10:30.  Jordan and I unloaded the truck and I put away the perishables, then made lunch.  After lunch I put the girls down for a nap,  or rather they were dragging me into their room so they could take a nap, and then straightened up the house and get things ready to go to Melissa's for a "craft party.".

But we didn't make it to Melissa's.  Jordan woke up saying her stomach was hurting, and I didn't want to take chances with her giving any of the other kids anything, so I cancelled.

And because we didn't go to Mel's we were able to get our schooling in before dinner time.

I'm anxious to see what tomarrow will bring and what we will get accomplished.
