missmoe Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I thought it might be interesting to see what everyone is working on for memory work. Anyone care to join me in blogging about their memory work. I'm going to have a post every or every other Monday. Would love to have other's join in---I know I can use all the ideas I can get!

SnMomof7 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 If I had anything to share...I would... Unfortunately, we aren't doing ANY memory work right now. I need to get my act together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmoe Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 Ladydusk, sounds good. I'll look for your post today. Jennifer---it's never too late to get your act together. :tongue_smilie:Currently, I'm trying to hold mine together---therefore the motivation of others seeing what I'm doing! Anyone else want to share. It doesn't need to be a blog post--posting here would be great also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kidlit Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I'll try to post later today. Right now I'm rocking and nursing a sick baby. Then it's back to lessons with my girls, so it will be this afternoon at the earliest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kchara Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I'll try to take some pics of our system and post today. :) It's DS's birthday, so it's a bit full, but if not today, then tomorrow for sure. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehogs4 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I have been blogging lately in my weekly updates about ds9's drive for memory master with CC...but i don't know if that is what you're interested in. It has been an arduous, but rewarding journey, to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patchfire Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Great idea! I posted ours--Memory Work Monday. It's been a little while since I've assessed our memory work this year, so this was a great opportunity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kidlit Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I just posted my blog entry here. You guys are inspiring me to ask a little more of my young children! :D I'll be back to read all of your blog entries later. Right now I need to go work on supper. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I've mentioned some of our memory work for the year in my posts about weekly work. I think I also have some of the science work in my page about chemistry. We're getting ready to start a poetry study, so he will probably be adding some of those works to his memory work....

elegantlion Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 We've moved into memorizing more substantial pieces this semester. I'd love to play, I'll add ours today. Memory Work Monday sounds like a great name! Can anyone make a badge or button? Miss Moe, it's your idea, do you like the name? Oh, fun. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmoe Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 I love the name. But I am not the gal to make a button. Anyone out there talented with stuff like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladydusk Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I posted ... it is still Monday, right? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halcyon Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I'm there! We do memory work (almost) daily, and I just posted on my blog. Excited to see what others are doing. Great idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missmoe Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Halcyon, Are you still doing Science Fridays? I would love to start that up again, if you are wanting to try that again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirch Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Love this idea! I'm heading to bed, so I won't get mine in today, but I'll try to post a belated one tomorrow. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristiana Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I'm another one that needs to get my act together when it comes to memory work! We've had some great success with the Simply Charlotte Mason setup (though with a binder rather than notecards) but we haven't reviewed anything systematically since before Christmas! We've memorized just a few scriptures since and reviewed "In Flanders Fields" when we got to WWI last month, but that's about it. I need to get back on this bandwagon! We're on spring break this week, so I'll give this some more thought and join in with a blog post next Monday. Now that I think about it, last week we did do a fun new activity with our memory verse. I printed it out, cut it up, and we had a race to see who could put it back together the fastest. I got the idea here. I'm always looking for new ideas for HOW to memorize, besides just what to memorize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VBoulden Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I actually post videos of my kid reciting her memory work. It ain't fancy, but the grandparents eat it up. :D Here are two of the videos I've posted thus far: http://www.veronicaboulden.com/2010/07/and-without-further-ado-here-is-norahs.html http://www.veronicaboulden.com/2011/01/its-been-while-since-i-shared-one-of.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirch Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Here's my (late) post. Off to check out other ideas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByGrace3 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 what great suggestions! I feel like I need to step it up in this dept.! No blogging, but this is what we are currently working on/completed this year: Old and New Testament books A-Z verses (currently on "O") Psalm 100 Psalm 23 (currently on vs 3) Catechism (Big Truths for Little Kids) various hymns it seemed like enough until I read these lists! :lol: anyone have any suggestions on great Bible verses/passages to music? We are currently using WeeSing, but I know there are more out there, and my kids will learn anything set to music! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also had my eye on Seeds Family Worship for a while. Don't feel bad--that's a great list! That's probably more than we were doing when my oldest was 5. It'll grow as they grow!
