We had big shopping to do in the CIty yesterday (a true emergency fabric store run plus a stock-up session with Chas and the gang at Sam's Club) We did manage to read two chapters of Farmer Boy but that's it.
Bible: Mark chapter 6
Reading: Farmer Boy ch. 6 and part of ch. 7
Phonics: OPGTR lesson 36 "The mad man sat in the pen. The big pig had jam in his den. The big pig had a nap in his den." We've finally finished this lesson and I feel like we have a good grasp on this new method of taking the lessons a few sentences at a time, all together, on the white board. Hopefully we'll be able to start moving a little faster now that the boys are accustomed to the routine of it.
Saxon Math 1: worksheet 18B I forgot to buy 3x5 cards yesterday (never made it to WM) so we just did the other worksheet from Monday's lesson. The boys were pleased that it didn't take very long and we got to skip the "dumb meeting stuff." I may have to pare down the "meeting" portion of the math lessons even more. They're both doing a good bit of spontaneous counting throughout the day- sometimes getting down the 100 number chart just to count along with it while we're not doing anything in particular.
Writing: gouge (AC's choice because he heard me say it last night) icicle, doughnuts (ahhh, Farmer Boy, you make me hungry with all your tasty farm meals. If I was your mother, I'd be "plump" as well!)
Vocabulary: beheaded (The account of John the Baptist's death was in our Bible lesson today and TH was fascinated and horrified by it, as usual. I know I have told him this story at least twice before. He is always very indignant that anyone would want to cut off John's head. He always gets furious with Herodias.)
