Monday a-go-go


With efforts in full-force, the Monday run-around begins!

The morning gave us a sneak peek of Autumn breezes and light showers, but Student didn't let this stop her from an A.M. stroll. Across the bridge and over the Arkansas she went! What a way to wake up your senses in the morning, just another fringe benefit of homeschool!

Violin lesson brought specific practice instructions to prepare for an upcoming performance at Fall Fest. Can't wait to hear student at her best: on-stage!

History is so close to completion in Genesis. We doubled up on lessons today, because Student is so eager to continue in Exodus and get deeper into our Egypt studies.

During our Phonics and Language lessons, we discovered Student's seatwork was asking her to connect her cursive letters... and so we got the picture! We are behind in cursive, and so that filled our afternoon with much writing! Trying to catch-up with such loops and curves, Student doesn't mind learning new steps. It's the ongoing repetition that drags!

With the review of Space facts for our open house, Student is growing in anticipation. We'll have to search for some tasty space treats to serve!

Student: My favorite cursive letter is the capital "D". I am glad there is one in one of my names!
