A Day in the Life of our Homeschool/Part 2


Time for reading. Today Everett finished Little Bear and did the word study and few a comprehension questions. 
 Cutting and pasting practice for Hampton.
 Everett working on copybook and memory work. This week's verse is Genesis 3:8.
 Reading a few pages from Peter Pan.
 Hampton working on his-Does it Belong? book. He finished it today.
 And Thatcher Reid just being his cute self.
 We usually do cursive after lunch, but we had some extra time today so Ev completed earlier.
 Eleanor "playing" Candy Land.
 Everett and Hampton playing our new favorite game-Rush Hour Junior.
 After lunch Eleanor and Thatcher take a nap. We then did our Bible time. After Bible we work on Literature and Enrichment. This week's book is The Moon Shines Down by Margaret Wise Brown. During the reading I ask comprehension questions. Today for science we learned about the phases of the moon and made moon sand. This was definitely an outdoor activity as it was very messy. Thank goodness it had warmed up. 
 And we always conclude our school day by watching something somewhat informative or educational. Today it was Magic School Bus.
 Our moon sand!
 And our schoolroom.......
