A whole lot of learning going on!

We’ve been up to lots around here!

Up first…Declan finished up Math U See Alpha on Monday..YEPPIE!!!

He started Beta today.. this is the first time we’ve used the DVD for him, and he was so ready for it..

After his first lesson we did some work with Decimal Street ourselves..He already knows place value really well but since it was a review lesson we went full steam.. he loves hands on for sure!

We’re working on The Circle Of Life~ Animal Lifecycles from Hands of a Child in science. ( You have to be a super member to get it for a few more weeks).

Declan’s also really gotten back into his Circuit kit.. he built himself a FM radio the other day!

Oh he and Taejan did nature prints yesterday… it was really neat!

Last night after the little kiddo’s went to bed Declan and I played “Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego” the board game..to say he loved it would be an understatement ( thanks Colleen again!)

Today Declan and Ziah began Draw Write Now  They both fully enjoyed it! Declan did the copy work while Ziah finished up her normal schoolwork:

then they both did the drawing part..not bad for their first time! I even purchased them each the notebook specifically for this program to make keeping their work neater..should be here in a week or so.

On another topic..I have Noah’s History all planned out! I am so pleased to have that off my “must do” list. Now to just flip through his Teaching Textbooks Algebra,LLATL American Lit and set up his Switched on Schoolhouse and we’re good to go!

    WOW!! Lots of learning for sure!! Hey, I didn’t know you got the Draw Write Now. I was looking at that a few weeks ago and it looked interesting. Let me know what you think of it. I think Morgan would like it, she is really into drawing lately.

    Thanks for sharing! It seems we like a lot of the same programs… we’re just dabbling in Draw Write Now and finished MUS Alpha about three weeks ago. :)

    Love the bunny ears!
