A different section of The Lord’s Prayer every day.
Dictation (Zach):
“Troubadours, minnesingers, and trouveres wrote and performed lyric poetry in the castles of great lords and kings. Lyric poems were set to music and told tales of courtly love, in which knights performed daring deeds for the women they admired.”
~ from “Medieval Myths, Legends, and Songs”
Recitation (Ben): None scheduled
Extracurricular items:
I forgot to mention last week that the older boys and I watched
“I, Claudius.” We all enjoyed it very much. There are a few scenes that required the fast-forward button, but overall it was fine.
