kinda went better than I had expected. Though by Friday, we did have a day off......I am trying to think why???!!!! something came up....... oh, we had a pastor and his wife from up north come down to pick up a newborn they are going to adopt. That was quite an interesting, yet emotional experience!!
Ds1 did well with most independent work. Though quiet reading has gotten sorta behind. He is allowed to pick the Sugar Creek Gang or BoxCar Kids book and read a chapter a day, he can read it at night. He didn't like my "oh, you haven't read the past few nights? guess you need to make up those chapters.....3 chapters today huh?" He didn't like that. We did have a bit of "I forget how to do it" when it came to multiplication, 3 digit, but he did good after the initial "redo your paper". He remembered quickly:-)
Ds2 did well, though I am trying to figure out reading with him. He did good on his Chinese. Dh is teaching them on Thursday and Friday. Ds2 is liking grammar (didn't get that from me!!).
Ds3 is still into having class, and wants his first:p.....won't last long. Being he is only in kindergarten, we really don't force things and have quick lessons. He is liking his math and writing quite well. We are using a book I got from free from someplace on the internet that gets movement and all that fun stuff invovled in learning the alphabet...HE LOVES IT!!! and he was so proud of him self for reading words like "man ran can" those types.
the one and only DD is picking up pencils and wanting to write in every book around. She gets pretty mad if you take it away from her. She is doing well and daddy tries his best to occupy her while we have class..... which is not an easy job in itself.
We are preparing for Ds1's 11th birthday......my, where has the time gone!! Dh leaves for a ministry trip to China that afternoon. So, it will be me and the kids for the week.......shall be um....interesting!!!
I'll write more another time....have a great week
