Well, it felt good to be back in the groove today. I don't think Isaac felt quite the same about it as I did. :) He would have voted for a much longer vacation....perhaps even a permanent one.
We are studying Ancient Greece and we are reading myths in Language Arts. I am really enjoying Classic Myths to Read Aloud by William F. Russell. I never liked reading myths when I studied them in sixth grade. I didn't understand them or know how to pronounce many of the names. This book makes it easy, and goes on to explain how the stories carry over into words we use today. Very interesting.
Tomorrow is Friday, and we will have homeschool group and then I always plan some sort of local field trip. I haven't quite decided where to go tomorrow yet, so I had better get working on that. :) Isaac always calls Friday "Fun Friday" and he really looks forward to it each week.
