WW Day 2

Our week isn't too terribly exciting. Here my oldest does her school work on the computer and the younger two clean up the books after reading time. The oldest is really struggling with the motivation and dedication to reading, so her new assignment is to read aloud to her siblings. This is working nicely, because she has to pronounce the words properly or they catch her on it - and she can't say she read four chapters and just skim. ugh. That one!

Winter Walk Day 1

DD is working on Time4Learning. We've just started using this online curriculum and all of us are very happy with it. It allows her to set her own pace (and sometimes she needs a little extra help). My older DD soars through her lessons, but they are far more diverse and interesting than I could have (or would have) come up with. I'm very proud of all their keyboard skills and computer skills.

DS is taking the opportunity to hit as many buttons as he possibly can on my computer, which happens any time he can get near a keyboard. Dh is working downstairs and we're waiting for a call-back from the doctor regarding his cast. DD 1, 3, and 4 are upstairs watching TV, playing, and reading, not in that order.
