Elocution

Yes, after History from I Samuel, our hospitable Homeschool hosted Gramma Es Tu today. She is a loving adoptive Gramma, that reads so eloquently thanks to her elocution homeschooling back in the day!

Her reading is positively entertaining! Student & Toddler sat attentively for 45 min, right next to each other! Only twice did Gramma have to warm
"No fighting!
No biting!" she quoted from a storybook from her motherhood days.

Yes, that is a box and a rocker added to our Homeschool today. She gifted us boxes of her extras in her fabric stash, and the rocker for Mascot's daytime cuddling and midnight feedings! And with winter coming on, the days will be perfect for sewing! Student said just today...
"I feel like quilting!"

And so we enjoyed our visitor, and substitute in Reading! As for Seatwork, Student enjoyed the syllable exercises in Language. The clock work in Math was new. It combined addition problems and clock faces showing the passing of time. She wrote her answers like the numbers on the digital clock faces! Again, no stopping Art from crossing over into EVERY subject! Her typography would make Principal proud!

Student's Computer time was spent with Fancy Nancy. She decorated her own Christmas tree...that's right! NOT Holiday tree, but a birthday candle for Jesus! Get into the spirit, Student!

And for music today, Student joyfully sang along with Francesca. SLAM to the parents listening to Hannah Montana...well, mainly Uncle Toby! :) Frannie sings and we all actually like it! Student has worked hard de-coding the lyrics, so props to her careful ear. We'll have to set up Music Appreciation class with Uncle Ed & Uncle Toby to see if they approve!
