Virginia Heather Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 We're working daily on our AWANA verses, and we've memorized the Old/New Testament books. We're slowly working our way through the VP history cards, and this week I plan to start states & capitals (with older brothers). Any other ideas??

Homemama2 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Mine is learning his awana verses, poems (spends about 3 weeks per poem), we did Sonnet 18 during the first 12 weeks of school, and then some random things for science (planets) and history (is memorizing the Kings and Queens of England...but I have to admit this is not going as well as I'd hoped. Partly b/c I keep forgetting about it, and then he forgets some and we have to back up.) With FLL he's memorizing some grammar stuff but we skip their poems.

Mrs Twain Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 We spend about five minutes per day on memory work, but we can actually get a lot memorized. Bible verses Days of creation excerpt from the Declaration of Independence, year, reason why it was written Preamble of the Constitution, year, three facts about it Three facts about the Bill of Rights, year 12 major wars of the U.S. Presidents Various goegraphy facts (continents, oceans, longest river, tallest mountain, largest waterfall, largest lake, largest island, largest continent, major deserts...)

kolamum Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Last year I had a second grader and he learned Luke 2:1-20 or so. On top of numerous other verses and the first 3 Stanza's of The Gingham Dog & The Calico Cat :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelli Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 An American history timeline I made up. A history sentence about what we are learning that week. Science definitions Parts of speech definitions and lists Poetic/literary terms Skip counting/addition and subtraction facts Bible verses from Proverbs We alternate what we work on during memory time each day except Bible verses and the American history timeline which we do every day. We only work on it for 15 minutes each day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiana Daniels Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 We're working daily on our AWANA verses, and we've memorized the Old/New Testament books. We're slowly working our way through the VP history cards, and this week I plan to start states & capitals (with older brothers). Any other ideas?? Oh, states/capitals is a great idea. We're doing 1 Cor. 13. This one is taking us a looong time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
