Breakthrough

Homeschool Week - ?

We've finally experienced our breakthrough in Math. I revamped our Saxon sessions by eliminating much of the meeting book activities, and giving the worksheet to Click before our lesson instead of after when he's a little math weary. I've also moved ahead with the lessons even though he hasn't mastered the +2 facts yet. I've set the +2 facts to a rhythm and we're practicing them throughout the day. It hit me that setting facts to a rhythm is how we learned math, so I went back to the basics.

Classical Music - Antonin Dvorak

Saxon Math 1 - Lesson 62, spelling numerals 0-10.

History - Story of the World 2 - Chapter 1, The Fall of Rome

Reading - Click read A Sock Is a Pocket for Your Toes by Elizabeth Scanlon to his sister who wasn't paying much attention. He also read Days With Frog and Toad by Arnold Lobel. He enjoys this chapter book series.


What About Clack?
She is an active 18 monther. Today she spent time biting chalk, pinching & eating modeling clay, tossing crayons across the room, and turing the television on & off. Needless to say, it's a miracle that Click & Clack can both learn in this environment.
