So, homeschooling amounted to math and reading, and a bit of writing. David stayed home this week, since I can't drive, and took Rachel to school, Taekwondo, and dance classes.
Math
Magic School Bus (rain)Magic School Bus (different subject...mind blank)12 my little pony phonics books (which we counted as 2 books for the chart) Hey, when she says she "loves" these books, I would rather her read a lot of easier books and enjoy them then learn to hate reading by attempting something harder.
We read:
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azakaban (a chapter a day)
Writing Practice
We were planning on a tea party on Thursday and were going to write a poem again. I started her on Monday thinking about things like setting, who, when, etc. She completed this sheet:
Instead of waiting to work on it again the next day, she immediately dictated this:
Bun-Bun
Bun-bun is a bunny.
She sits down at the pond.
All day long
eating bread
But when her mother comes along
she gets up to go play.
When mother goes away
she doesn't stand to play.
She sits down again
and finishes her bread.
And again when mother goes away
she is happy as can be.
And there are blossoms on the tree
and apples are awakening
from winter on the blossoms.
