Although our clay has dried out, we decided to wait until Monday to paint them. Mom was tired!! Feeling a cold coming on, and needed to sleep it off a little. Rachel also needed to finish her 'Emporer's New Clothes' book. So even though it was a weekend..;) we still had a little school work!
The girls started their 'points for cash' chores. They seem to be getting into them!! One cent=one point. I already have a clean livingroom/kitchen and Rachel is doing dishes. :) so far so good! Dishes (only if done neatly..no water everywhere) are 50 points, so I moved that one up a little.
I am debating whether to purhcase the workbook I had planned for Rachel, or just to go ahead with that online program. I know what I am going to use for the next year, but that doesn't start until grade 5 so I am trying to 'fill in the gap'. What I like about the online program is it is pretty much 'all oral'. Which require you to memorize the facts, and then there is no full page of workbook sheets to overwhelm you as well. Just a few to copy down, and it is almost all story problems. So I may stick with them, and try and get them to memorize those facts!!
Will see...still in the 'planning mode'.
The kids are already looking forward to their co-op on Tuesday!! They had a great time :)
