Lydia's Science Samples
Linda, I am finding it very difficult to come up with samples to show that we are doing science! You would think since we live in the woods, it would not be a problem. The kids are outside all the time, discovering insects, googling them, finding patterns in nature, going on hikes and adventures ect. I guess I need to make them do a report on it when they come in:) Anyway, I just wanted to say that there is no lack of science, just a lack of documentation. I'll do better next month, I promise!!

Gracie's Language Samples
Well, I managed to get my act together on the "F" day at least! We have been doing a letter of the alphabet each week in much the same way as we did with Shelby last year. We read " " books, recite poems and do activities. Then at the end of the week, we make a spelling list and review it at the top of the next weeks' letter lesson. I think Grace will be an early reader, she is doing very well!

Thanks so much Rachel!
