Schoolwork accomplished today:
*Leanna worked on some ocean oil spill pictures and she helped me take notes on the Oil spill. Then she composed a letter to our senator, Jennifer Mann, which we will hopefully mail tomorrow, asking her to make laws to help with oil spills. It had a lot of spelling and punctuation errors so later on I had her re-write it. This doesn't sound like a lot but it was quite time-consuming. I showed her how to address a letter.
*I tested her on spelling lists 11 and 12.
*She colored a picture of Mark Twain (I'm thinking we'll start doing Tom Sawyer soon, maybe with all the kids).
*She drew a stack more fish/ocean pictures.
*She read some of Bunnicula outloud.
*She was reading stories to Timothy as well.
*We finished James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl.
*We discussed earthquake safety, thanks to an email that was sent to me.
I took time to organize and put away a bunch of our school papers that had been sitting on the kitchen table getting wrinkled and having water spillled on them. I feel so much better now, I have a better idea of what we've accomplished and I found a few papers I need to go over with her again. It feels good to be a little more organized.
