BigH is working away on Explode the Code Online and been reading some of LittleE's HOP books which has been wonderful.
We continue to work on 'The Land of Counterpane' for BigH and 'The Wind' for LittleE each day they work very carefully doing one page of copy work. They will also usually draw a picture was well to go with this copy work.
We have also been diligently working on the day's of the week in Spanish we founds this cute video that has been helpful. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5WHgkjL3kE&feature=related We go over the Spanish days of the week while we are doing calender time.
We have been going over almost daily, The Duggar family guidlines which we renamed, 'Family Beliefs'.
* BigH received a certificate of Achievement from his BC 4-H Cloverbud unit 3! My boy congratulations!!! This year they learned about pigs, goats, bicycle safety, dogs, clothing, and sewing to name a few things. LittleE did all the same work but she was not old enough to officially join. Everyone acknowledged her and clapped for her knowing that the only reason she did not get a certificate was because of her age. That's ok she took it well and she is now old enough to be a Cloverbud.
