Weekly Update June 7-11th

It’s FRIDAY!  It’s homeschool convention weekend!  We are heading up today as a family to view the vendors and see if anything new has hit the market.  We are set for fall and anything I find today would be ‘gravy’ for our studies.  I have a few things I am looking for though such as logic workbooks or software.

We have had a great week in our studies.  We wrapped up the history reading portion of our curriculum and now have two books to finish reading.  Both are about missionaries so the kids really enjoy them and I don’t think we will wait all summer to read.  A  little each day and before fall we will finish.  Math is consistent with one lesson a day.  I wish they would want to do more to get done but honestly, if they keep at this pace they won’t have the long break and I won’t have to reteach things come fall ;-)   They also do logic every day.  Once they finish…which could be 30 minutes or HOURS depending on the day/attitude/lack of sleep/stubborn will, they are off to play.  They are also watching Avatar:The Last Airbender from Nickelodeon on Netflix/Wii and are happy it’s been hot or rainy to get an episode in each day.  Dh and I loved the series and now the kids are enjoying as well.  Cutiepatootie commented, “The world would sure be different if we had airbending or waterbending.”  Yep, it sure would be!

We went bowling this week, to the pool, to the park with friends, to music lessons and had outside play time with the neighbor kids.  Summer is shaping up to be a fun one.

Have a great weekend!
