Brief run down of school over the last few weeks (since I've been neglectful to blog about it!)
Handwriting:
Ruby has one more capital letter to go (J).
Ford has finished all lower case letters and is working on sentences.
Rachel is half-way through her Kick-Start Cursive book and loves it!
Language Arts:
Ruby has started the Bob pre-reader books.
Ford is reading up a storm and is learning about Folk Tales.
Rachel is looking at Fairy Tales from different countries.
Math:
Ruby can repeat all the math concepts everyone else is learning...
Ford can add 9 to any single digit number.
Rachel can round, estimate, and add thousands, ten-thousands, and hundred-thousands.
Science:
Ruby and Ford are basically meterologists after learning about Weather and the Seasons.
Rachel can tell you all about matter and is properties plus how to measure length and volume.
Social Studies:
Ruby has been reading about Native Americans.
Ford is starting a unit on Columbus and the beginning of America.
Rachel is moving from the colonization of America to the Revolutionary War.
Enrichment:
Everyone is taking art classes when there is not snow on the ground.
The girls have begun preparing for the ballet recital in May.
Rachel is moving along very well in violin.
Ford is ready to start soccer!
House:
All the trim is up, final painting should be done in the next few days, then floor, then electrical/plumbing/HVAC final...trying to go as quickly as possible despite the weather!
