Howdy! We made it through another week this week! Things are moving right along here and it's been a pretty decent week. Today we'll be ending the week with a field trip so that's always good.
This week...
We started a Latin program for review this week and boy is it shooting off like a rocket! Boo Bear is really loving it and I am as well. I took two years of Spanish in high school and can pick words out here and there. I think it's really important to have a second language and I'm glad we can pick and choose which ones. This one is a lot of fun and we can't wait to share it with you!
We had our last science class yesterday until September. Sigh.. I have a very sad kiddo. They take the summer off to do summer camps so we might try to do one of those. We will have to see. He typically does a summer theater program for a week and it's a long drive from our home. This science center is about the same drive, a little shorter, so not sure I want to do that for two weeks. :).
We started the skeletal system this week in anatomy. We were working on our bone puzzle we received at Christmas but it looks like a few bones are missing. If we find them I'll be sure to share it with you.
We are moving along well in our other subjects. We are working on math and I have him doing his curriculum stuff and a multiplication workbook. He's loving the workbook right now. I'm trying to make sure he has those multiplication facts down as in the next few weeks he'll be moving on to division. We are also playing a game called multiplication war and he really enjoyed that as well.
We got to do a really cool day at the library this week as well. We are working on a unit study called about birds. This week a Falconer was at the library with his Eagle Owl. Boy was that a beautiful bird!
Boo Bear loves animals of all types and can spout of facts that honestly make your head spin at times. He was really in his element with this presentation and has even thought of doing it when he's grown. I think it's awesome and could so totally see him doing that.
Fun times...
We have fun no matter what we're doing right? Well, most times anyway :) . We had a nice family picnic this past weekend and got to see some beautiful horses. It's definitely getting to our summer weather with storms in the afternoons and hot, humid, gross weather. Tis' summer in the South right? :)
We had an awesome time even with the weather spending time with family. Oh and by the way... How cute is his hair? :) He only lets me spike it up for him every once in a while. I think it's adorable this way but he's set on it being down towards his face most days.
Today's a field trip and visits with friends this weekend. It's been too long since we got to hang out with them and they live near us. It's sad how busy life gets sometimes. I love when it slows down and we can just be together :).

Seems like your schedule is winding down also. Yeah, we are also taking off to do summer camps, the kids love it and I get a bit of the summer off too, lol! I'm visiting from Weekly Wrap UP.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a peaceful week. My crew would flip tp meet a falconer! Stopping by from the wrap-up.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun week. My youngest would love to meet the falconer, and see the birds! :) Thanks for linking up at Life at Rossmont!
