Schoolwork accomplished:
4 pages in her spelling workbook
A page in her Skill Drills workbook.
We read two chapters of On the Banks of Plum Creek.
I read the entire poem section and 3 of the 4 Aesop's Fables to the three older kids. I asked them what they thought the moral of each fable was (Timothy had no clue, Justin would do a decent guess, and most of the time Leanna had the right idea, although with one she just kept giving me a plot summary. Even with the poem/nursery rhyme Simple Simon, I though the meaning was pretty clear, but none of the kids understood what was going on.....good reminder to me to always have them summ it up in their own words so I can see what they're actually getting out of it!
We watched the movie Stuart Little.
We had cable/internet installed today, so she also watched many PBS shows, like word girl and martha speaks (which emphasize vocabulary words).
