Wheres Toto Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Good Morning! We are heading home this morning. It was a great relaxing weekend in a beautiful location. We're planning to do more of these long weekend trips over the Spring and Summer. They are enough to relax and enjoy but not long enough to get bored, perfect for the kids. My kids don't like amusement parks that much (not even Disney got them that excited), but they love aquariums and zoos so we're going to go in that direction more. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Good Morning! Happy Monday! I never did make it to church in person yesterday. Sigh. This recovery is taking longer than I would like. 😉 Of course, I think my expectations were maybe a bit too high. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Good morning! It's The Queen's favorite day! I found a crochet textured dishcloth pattern that I really like and is super quick to make. https://www.petalstopicots.com/textured-crochet-dishcloth-pattern/ I have been knocking out all the little things this morning. I need to call the vet for Pup's medicine refill and then take dd13 to the orthodontist. Music lessons, children's choir, and Scouts tonight.

Jean in Newcastle Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Someone please tell me that there really is a finite number of things to declutter in this house.

Slache Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Junie! I read on a free sample of Skills For Literary Analysis that you should read some of the books the year before but I can't find the same sample. Can you look that up for me? And tell me if it's the same for American? If you can't I'll start a thread. Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bean Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Hi. I'm standing in my kitchen eating a sherbet float. Son 16 and I started binge watching Forever last night and plan on round 2 after he finishes the dishes. I'm making duck cutouts for R&S Gr. 1 Math for Little Man. My older kids all were pretty firm that I need to use it with him. They have fond memories of the addition and subtraction Waldorf influenced stories I made up all those years ago. Not much else going on here. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should probably look at it to see what it does have, though. Oldest scored well on his math test today and he actually completed it in a reasonable timeframe per my last conversation with R&S. I just looked at the next chapter and looks like we're headed right into the multiplying fractions ect vortex of doom. Seriously, the stuff he's about to learn (in grade 5!) would've helped me tremendously in Algebra 1. Svengo. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Servant4Christ Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) We love R&S English. It's to the point, easy to understand, and most of the daily lesson is actually be done verbally (oral drill section) until you get to the written practice section. I cherry pick in the daily review section. I will say Oldest detests the writing lessons, but then he'd hate writing no matter the curriculum. And in the spirit of EdPos.... I'm having way too much fun looking at the samples on the Berean Builders website. I'm pretty well convinced that's where we're headed as far as high school science. I'm considering it for the youngers, but we'll see. Edited April 6, 2022 by Servant4Christ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Got hydrangea #6 pruned. Then Neighbor came out to talk with me.
