As for Katie...this week she will
-learn more about letters, numbers, colors and phonics in the Rod & Staff ABC series.
In Little Hands to Heaven she will
- Learn about Isaiah and Jeremiah in her Bible lessons
-do art and science projects related to the Bible lessons
- practice skip-counting by 2's and 3's
- Do activities based on the letter "O"

We are also doing a 'mini-unit' of Before Five in a Row with the book The Snowy Day.
(I though t hat was an appropriate choice since our world looks like this these days....)

I had really hopped that we could get outside and do some of the activities that the character in the book enjoys (making footprints in the snow, snow angels, and sledding) but since our weather this week
looks like this........

Mostly Cloudy

-8°F ( Wind chill -26°F)

I figured it's too dangerous to go out - and maybe we can make footprints with paint instead.

UUGH, you make me want to go back to MFW. LOL. I just want someone to do my work for me but then I don't like how they do it. Can someone just read me mind, write my plans, and help me stick to them?

I'm always worried that I'm flaking on history/science. You do such fun things and I'm like just glad we got the lousy chapter read. LOL.

I love seeing other people's schedules. It lets me know I'm not the only one who has to write every single thing down in order to make sure it gets done, LOL.
