We had a lighter home-school week this week (which might make one think I would have time to blog more, but no). Some highs and lows to our week in our weekly run-down. Scholastic Report Looking at what did and didn’t get done on my planning sheet this week, the verdict is that we had solid school days Monday through Wednesday. The girls each got in two math lessons a piece. Counting peanuts into groups of ten. And eating several of them. We hit all of our Language Arts - Explode the Code, Handwriting, First Language Lessons, Writing with Ease. We read/listened to the audio of chapter 4 in Story of the World, learning about Ancient Egypt. We worked our our memory work for week 3 in Classical Conversations. Highlights of our memory work were learning the names of the Greek and Roman gods, the parts of an animal cell, and starting Latin noun endings. Typing up her notes for her CC presentation. A little appalled at the state of my desk in this picture so please avert your eyes from that! We finished (finally!) our recent lunchtime chapter book read-aloud, Little Town on the Prairie. There was some talk about jumping right into These Happy Golden Years, but instead we’ve picked up Rabbit Hill by Robert Lawson. (He was also the author of Ben and Me which we’ve read-aloud and I’ve blogged here). B and I worked on her math and some letter recognition activities that I found in our school closet for her kindergarten. I’ve got the itch to pull out all our fall / apple books and do a lapbook with her so my hopes are to get that organized and lined up this weekend. Life Report We had a late night Monday night with the girls – unplanned – which set the tone for needing to slow down towards the end of the week. I had run to the store with a couple of the kids and got home right at bedtime. B came out to help me bring things in and closed the van door for me … unfortunately with one of her fingers still inside. My poor girl slammed it good and after calming her down and putting ice on it for about thirty minutes, T loaded her up and headed to the ER for an x-ray on it. : ( God again protected one of our kids (remembering last week’s update where the boy pulled his dresser over – I’m hoping this doesn’t become a weekly wrap-up theme!) The finger wasn’t broken – just very bruised. And as of this weekend, other than being a little stiff, most of her pain is gone. Although we would obviously not have wished this to happen to her, one perk was that she had a killer presentation at CC the next morning about her ER experience. : ) This was also a LATE night for the girls. B didn’t get home from the ER until almost 11pm, and at least one sister (the one she shares a room with) couldn’t go to sleep until she was back home. By Thursday they were all really draaaaaagging, so we had a very lite school day on Thursday and Friday of this week. I am feeling the need to shake our daily routine up a little bit now that the weather is a little cooler outside. The schedule I worked out for us has served us well the first six week of school, and I could probably keep using it, but I would like to be able to work in a morning walk each day. Still working out kinks, but we took a walk/bike ride on Wednesday morning before starting school and all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. On Thursday, I escaped for a good chunk of the day! I have now warned my husband that I might need these “teacher development days” every six weeks or so! : ) A college acquaintance was in town giving a workshop on Thursday morning and I attended that. After checking with my friend who was staying with the girls, I found she could stay a little longer and I got to have lunch with T. By myself. With no interruptions. I have to fess up on myself – I give the girls a hard time about talking to me non-stop when I get one of them one-on-one to myself, but I think I did the same thing to T on our lunch date. : ) Much needed shot in the arm for Mama. Breakfast : oatmeal, coffee, reading through Matthew with the girls, and one of our history timeline cards from CC. So far this addition to our schedule is working well! (We were doing this reading before, just upstairs in the schoolroom). And with that we’ve wrapped up another week of school. It’s hard to believe that today is the first day of autumn, too! Today looks to be a normal Saturday around these parts, albeit with mid-seventy degree temperatures. I’ll take that! We have soccer for B this afternoon, a quick grocery run and stop at Staples, and our family pizza and movie night tonight. Typically that’s our Friday night activity, however, T hosted a music team get-together/rehearsal here last night and it was a loud, late night with a house full of musicians. : ) Happy Saturday. Linking up with Kris and Weird, Unsocialized Homeschoolers!
Would you like to decorate your classroom with fun, hand-drawn anchor charts/posters? Do you simply not have the time to get them done? Well, you have come to the perfect place! I love making these engaging and appealing anchor charts. I also can draw/create any other topic you would like, just contact me directly and ask! My students absolutely love these posters and references them every day. Many of them are visual learners, so the colorful images really help them connect and remember what they have learned. This particular anchor chart is for readers/writers practicing homonyms. The visuals and examples really help my students both have fun with the material and understand it on a deeper level. Please let me know if you would like me to adjust it in anyway to meet your classroom's needs. I also wouldn't mind collaborating with you as well if you would like me to add anything else! I have been teaching now for over 7 years in all diverse school districts and with all different ages, so I understand the importance of being as flexible and understanding as possible! **These will be copies unless asked otherwise. Hope you love it :)

So in classical conversations, one of our art lessons is on OiLS. Not the oil pastel kind, the drawing component kind! This was awesome to me when I first learned about this. You really can break down everything you draw to those 5 components. Here is a quick cheat sheet to learning them: click HERE to download them. I had a cute fun little practice lesson with my kids before CC starts and it was so much fun! I can't wait to teach a whole class of these little guys and watch them draw! So for the first part of our 30 min segment we introduced the sheet above, the OiLS and let them practice them for about 3 minutes. Then I did some board drawings, instructing them to follow along. Here they are: The cute little mouse I learned on a facebook page : ART FOR KIDS, The Alligator I got from an ED Emberly book. The kids had fun Here are theirs, I really wish I would have had them use black marker, it would have looked so much better. So in our actual class that's what we will do: Then we did a final project as I instructed them in a clown fish:
