Well, last Friday we went to the Roxy Regional Theater to see a play of Beatrix Potter's stories. It was really cute. Of course it was too young for DS but I heard him laugh a few times. DD loved it. They both came home and made scrapbook pages. We printed off some pictures of some of her characters from online and then they wrote a little about it. They did a great job on them.
This week are moving on with our pioneers. Yesterday we talked about Jedidiah Smith. Interesting fact, he was a Methodist! So are we!! Anyway, they both wrote very nice little paragraphs (DS's was several) on him. Today we will start down the Oregon Trail. I think they are enjoying it and I think it going much better taking it slow. We are doing what the unit calls a week in about two. They just really need to spend more time on each subject in order to retain it.
We just got home from doing our church work and the library. They are now getting busy with their core subjects, and begging for an early lunch. I guess I will go and find them something. Have a wonderful day!
