~Week 5, Part 2~

We finished up the second part of our fifth week from the schedule.  It was only two days worth of work, but we stretched it to three.    

We've also been busy out of the house this week.   On Tuesday the girls had their American Girl club.  They are doing the Josefina books this time around.   The girls in the club are making crafts and recipies from the books as well as putting on a play about Josefina.   They will be working on the play until December when they will perform it.    My girls are super excited about it.

Today they had a pizza party at the park with their K12 teacher and about 12 other families that attended.   We left that activity a bit early to get to our book club on time at a different park.   We all came home hot and tired, but happy.    

The library on base has started a "Homeschool Hour" every Thursday, so we're going to give that a shot tomorrow.

As for the second part of our fifth week, Hermoine worked on her math, finished up her spelling, logic, geography and writing.  She also did science, which was a Unit Review and Assessment.  She passed with flying colors.    She is still working her way through The Silver Crown for literature.   

Ramona moved on in math to adding and subtracting fractions with common denominators.  She also finished her spelling, logic, geography and writing for the week.   She did her typing lessons and her science, which was all about symbiotic relationships.  (She loved, loved, loved this week in her science.)    She is continuing to read The Little Town on the Prairie for literature.   

Next week we will be back to our regular schedule, but these two shortened weeks in a row were a nice little break.
