I am so thankful that October has finally arrived. We are having nice fall days with lots of sunshine. I think it is wonderful that the kids can go outside and play more now that it is not sizzling outside! H enjoys being outside climbing trees!
We studied mammals in Ch. 3 of WEAVER VOL.2. We learned so much but these weeks were filled up with outside activities and I'm afraid our studies suffered a little. I am glad we were able to do our character study on humility though. Learning that we as people are quite like sheep was not really a surprise but a good reminder of why we need Christ all the time.
Studying sheep was a favorite of the kids. They wrote amazing essays about sheep.
Chapter 4 is on the sovereignty of God and Worship. We are going to learn about inventor and inventions and how these men and women and their inventions affected history or will affect our future. Today the kids wrote poems about our nation and state. Both H and JR enjoyed this very much.
We are off to choir this afternoon.
E will go to Teen Court. H will attend a teen girls Bible study. C gets picked up around 8 from her lab at the college. I'm thankful for a life full of blessing!
It is when we get cooler weather here in the tropics. Also in anticipation of the coming holidays (which means a December break too in the Philippines), October somewhat turns on a festive "switch" in the family =). Yes, there are many things to be thankful for...
Hello, You all sound like you are having such a great time in your learning. I know that you have been busy but it is okay. You make me wonder if I should try weaving again :)
