Schoolwork Accomplished:
*Silent reading: Harry Potter(finished)
*Worked on copying 6th grade sight words & definitions, including recopying lists when she deemed them too sloppy. ( list 6,7,89,10 on 6th grade words.)
*Listed 10 things I learned in 2010-this involved our going back through our pictures and remembering things that we did over the year, then talking about what lessons we'd learned.
*Leanna also worked on a longer and better list of New Year's Resolutions. She told me she's always had tons of ideas floating around in her head, she just didn't want to write them down. It took a while to get her into it, but she finally wrote a (neat!) list of resolutions. She read them to me and explained them. This also lead to a discussion on how electric is one of our biggest bills and on ways to save energy.
*She took an online quiz on the Laura Ingalls Wilder timeline (info about Laura's life) and got one wrong out of ten. This was also self-directed.
*Later on she began copying her list of things she learned in 2010 into a lapbook. (This took longer than you'd think). I think tomorrow we'll add some color to make it look nicer, but all the pieces are in the book now.
