In my life this week...
Ok, so really, I'm posting this on Monday evening... the week and weekend totally got away! I had a two-day Usborne booth in Keller, so yeah... pure chaos at my house pretty much. Michael did a fantastic job of taking care of the boys while I was away... they got haircuts, even! And Preston lost a tooth! Anyway, I thought I better make sure I get a recap posted, even though it features absolutely NO pictures. Booooo!
In our Homeschool this week...
Tot School: We continued the 1plus1plus1equals1.net "Tot School" printables this week with letter "L" for Leaf! We read a lot of fun Fall books: Lucky Leaf, Leaves, Fletcher & The Falling Leaves, Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf and Why Do Leaves Change Color?
Bible: This week's focus continued with Jesus as "Immanuel." We continued learning O Come, O Come Emmanuel, the Christmas song. Preston's memory verse is Matthew 1:23 and we looked up a couple of other verses in The Discoverer's Bible that talked God being with us.

Reading/Writing: We continued Spelling by Sound & Structure. Continued with lesson 34-36 in Primary Language Lessons. We continued our read-aloud, Farmer Boy, by Laura Ingalls Wilder. Both boys really enjoy this and ask for it (even Callen asks for it by name, heh).
History:
This weeks main focus was life during the time of the Wilderness Road and Daniel Boone. We read a few stories from our books about moving from New England further into Tennessee and Kentucky. And our state study continued with Kentucky. We read through Kentucky Facts & Symbols and the storybooks A Regular Rolling Noah and Counting On the Woods.
Math: Preston started his Part B of Math Mammoth, Second Grade. Working on hundreds and skip counting by different numbers, using addition and subtraction.
Science: This week's them was weather. We read two pages of First Encyclopedia of Science on different kinds of weather. And we talked about wind with our Science with Air book.
Music/Art: Continued learning "America, The Beautiful." We also started on a World's Greatest Artists, Vol 1 unit study, and our first artist is Leonardo Da Vinci. We read a couple of biography books on him (Leonardo Da Vinci and Da Vinci), and looked at a bunch of his art online. Next week we'll be trying to recreate some of his art!
Spanish: Continued with the next two episodes of Salsa. Started up La Clase Divertida, Lesson 7 about el cuerpo. We reviewed words having to do with "El Cuerpo" in our First Thousand Words in Spanish.
We are using Adventures in My Father's World. See our curriculum here.
