Sonlight
Core F
Week 35
August 17- 24, 2014
In Process
This week Dd and I *finally* got the itch to hit our community pool. We swam Monday through Thursday, and would have swam on Friday but we had to pack for our trip back down to Indiana. The pool here is absolutely freezing!!! But, after about 5 minutes of swimming it starts to feel a little warmer---but don't stop swimming! I'm glad she finally wanted to go swimming here. It use to be that we would see people in and around the pool all the time, but lately it has been abandoned---I wonder if the pool heater stopped working, or if school started, or why the sudden decrease in numbers?
This week we finished all our Core F things except for Dd's "Reader", Water Sky. Once she finishes that book up we will be done. I've been checking my books, and ordering the ones I need for Sonlight; plus some extra ones that look particularly good. Some of the books I'm getting to go along with our Core G: I have all the Sonlight books, and have picked some add-in's from Chelle's blog, WP's Ancient course, and Rainbow Resources Ancients course. I already have a lot of add-in's but found a few books from those sources that I didn't have yet, and thought I'd post some of the books we are going to be reading in Core G. I am getting excited to repeat our journey into studying Ancient history again!
This was another big keyboarding week! Which is great! She has figured out how to play the following songs:
The Wallace and Gromit Theme
Pirates of the Caribbean Theme
(Some of) Concerning Hobbits
Misty Mountains (another LOTR song)
First Noel (Christmas song)
My Country Tis of Thee
This was also a Lego Week, and she made a wall art piece out of disc's---I'll try to post pictures soon.
