The sun is shining, the ducks are swimming are floating by nibbling on the bread we have thrown out for them, the boat is warm and the dogs and the boy are asleep. It is nice to sit here and just soak in the atmosphere. We have had a nice week, just pottering along-a bit of school work and a bit of fun.
We started Sonlight Core 3 a few weeks ago and are both really enjoying it. The emphasis is american history and the readers and read alouds are based on that theme. It has sparked some interesting discussions on imperialism and slavery. We have also restarted the Cambridge Latin Course, doing a little each day rather than just once a week. This works much better and sam is actually excited to do it each day. We are also doing daily math drills to hammer home basic math facts. Sam can add and subtract fractions but often forgets more basic operations. He has also started a daily journal to try and encourage him to write more and to improve his handwriting.
Have a sunny day everyone!
