Living and Learning With the Kvenvolden Bunch

Ok...

So i know i've not blogged since OCTOBER(!!!!!) but i'm really  hoping to get back on track with that, and since we had a GREAT day today, i thought now would be an awesome time to start!

So, today, got up, and off to a bit of a rough start since alex had to shower still, and by the time he was done, Leif was awake :-( its MUCH easier to work on alex's scedule when leif is sleeping!! but Leify was on pretty good behavior so we pulled it off. 

So we went through last week's schedule.  the only thing that didn't get completed was Science, pretty much the whole science week was blown off, but that was because grandpa and aunt dorie were here, so good excuse.  so, this week we vowed to get back on track.   This week's schedule has tuesday blanked out because we leave at 8 am for Tacoma to do the midwife appointment and ULTRASOUND!!!!  woohoo!

So we set next week's schedule.  Alex is starting to read Tom Sawyer, having finished Treasure Island, his critical thinking is focusing on Logic, symbols and all, Fallacy Detective looks compelling as always...  The two of these are quickly becoming his favorite subjects!  OOPS, we forgot to schedule economics! have to go back and do that!  He's starting Saxon Calculus today, in fact he's working on that now, and he's been hiding out for a long time... i hope its going well!   Today he also took his spelling test, perfect score, and took the apologia science test with Nikolas, working together open book since its been so long since they've studied that, and again, perfect score. 

Nik worked on his, math, and copywork,  Chloe did her spelling, math, phonics, and copywork, with PERFECT handwriting, she's such a perfectionist!  Nik still needs to do his spelling and phonics, and reading and together we are going to start on Apologia Botany  too, as a precurser to our GARDEN this summer, woohoo!  Nik is overlapping sciences, doing both physical science with Alex and Botany which is with Chloe and more grade appropriate.  He likes science, and its a good way to get his hours in, and also keep his mind occupied!

Anna has spent the morning sorting buttons into categories and drawing. 

A GOOD DAY today is!  We are trying to cram a lot of work into today since tomorrow is an outing day.

May. 27, 2009 - Hi, Rebecca!

Posted by ElCloud
I see you have a HSB blog, too. I added you to my friends. I left AW when it became a paid membership thing. I do use diaperswappers sometimes. We've continued to use cloth, but we also use paper at night and away from home. I usually give up on cloth once they reach 2.5 or 3, though. Yucky!

Congrats on the twins ... that is exciting ... and I'm sure it has upset the cart a bit.
