Studies Update on Cassie

Posted in Cassie

It's been a while since I've posted on her work....I need to schedule a regular time to do this.

 

She has just completed the 2nd of 5 book reports necessary for this year.  This was on the http://ebiz.netopia.com/clpress/pages/store/skudetail.nhtml?profile=grade9&uid=12438&returnURL=http%3A//ebiz.netopia.com/clpress/grade9] Pearl Maiden.  The other 3 will go much faster since they are the books of her choice. 

 

In history she is wrapping up the Roman Empire and in Biology she is wrapping up a study on atoms.  Nothing too exciting going on.  It was cool to be studying the Ides of March on the Ides of March.

Catching up

Posted in Cassie

Well, I think we're getting there.  We've been reviewing where we stand and where we need to be.  Here are the stats:

 

Biology:  1/4 of the way finished

Literature:  3/4 of the way finished

Grammar:  1/4 of the way finished

History:  1/2 of the way finished

Theology:  3/4 of the way finished

Economics:  Just starting

Geometry: 1/4 of the way finished

Vocabulary:  1/2 of the way finished

Latin:  1/4 of the way finished

 

Although this doesn't look promising, the only subjects necessary to finish by May are Biology through Economics.  Econ is a semester course.  We are going to cut some of our projects out to get caught up in history and we'll double up on our assignments in Biology.  Grammar isn't really that far behind, since this is including the various book reports she must complete.  Geometry, we have decided, will be a summer course.  That way she can concentrate on all the others that we report to CLASS.  Also, she can study it more intensively.  (And it gives me time to study it as well since step-Dad isn't able to be here to help.)  We will step up Vocabulary, which is a small study in itself.  Finally, Latin is only a fun study that she can continue through the summer.

 

Whew.  Piece of cake.

Catching up, yet again.

Posted in Cassie

I guess it is a teenage thing in which activities are a higher priority than learning.  But she has once again allowed herself to fall behind.  So the work load will be, well let's just say challenging this week.

 

Today she has completed all 3 Biology experiments required for Module 4 and will need to review for her test.  Everything else should go as planned (with the exception of doubled lessons).

...is how she feels today.  It's the same old stuff.  Although she does have 2 exams to study for today.  We're trying to adjust to a new schedule this week, it's a slow process...

Catch up

Posted in Cassie

Once again, Cassie is playing catch up.  She'll be working diligently today as she catches up on her schoolwork from last week.  We had a light day Friday to prepare for an all-night youth group event.

 

She will need to hurry though, if she would like to attend knitting club at 3.
