We started this morning with a bowl of oatmeal and a mini-study on Job. Pete had just returned from work and was able to lead our discussions...I like it when he's around to do that!! DS2 asked if our pets would be in Heaven which lead to the reading of a chapter from Randy Alcorn's book Heaven for Kids. A nice discussion followed. Pete went to bed and the kids and I headed for the schoolroom.... At 10:30 we stopped for apple muffins and The Merchant of Venice from this book, several poems by Edgar Guest from this book, and Reading 1 Saint Ursula from this book. I use The Home Educator's Tutor for the Saint Ursula readings. DS1: Bible: read about Jeroboham and Ahab Language Arts:
