We had another great day of school. (I'll have re-read these when the days get tough.) We started by reading How to Make an Apple Pie & See the World- and I am really loving that book. We did some vocab words (ingredients, superb, locate, elegant, coax, native, plantation). Then we had our math lesson - more calendar & pattern blocks. Caleb again loved this part the most. I also learned that Caleb would probably do well coloring while Jimmy & me do the other parts of our lessons. Could have used that info during vocab, LOL!
We reviewed our Bible memory verse (A soft answer turns away wrath. Proverbs 15:1). The plan was then to just introduce the letter A, but the boys both wanted to write it. So Jimmy wrote 4 big A's and 4 little a's. Caleb colored over the A I drew on his notepad. =)
Then we had some music time. We have a CD from Randy's mom. The last track is Ancient Words, one of Randy's favorite praise songs. We sang that, clapping along. Then we sang Amazing Grace (going with the A theme). Finally, we tapped some rhythms on the floor. I tapped some for Jimmy to repeat, then Jimmy tapped some for me to repeat. Very basic stuff that still needs a lot of work, but I'm sure we'll make a lot of progress if I stick to it.
