AHL: Week 2

This week was a little easier. Less writing - which was good. She is doing well keeping up on the Taking the Old Testament Challenge readings and answers. We talked about at least noting what chapters the readings were from so I can tell which lesson she worked on. Some of the questions are tough, but it looks like she is at least making an attempt to answer. 

Rabbit said The New Answers Book repeats itself a lot. And some of the stuff she didn't really care about. For example, on the chapter about Noah's Ark, she really didn't care about the studies showing how stable the Ark was on the water. I think she wanted them to get to the point a little faster.

The Exploring World History readings and In Their Words readings have been fine. She seems to be comprehending what they are saying. Again, she is seeing a lot of repeat from the three different readings - between the Bible, The New Answers Book, and Exploring World History. But, she is getting things done.

This week also introduced the Unwrapping the Pharaohs. She wasn't thrilled with the details of mummification. 

This week I didn't have as much time to meet with her daily, so we ended up doing a weekly meeting. After that, I've decided that it would be best if she lightly checks off each thing each day in the lesson plans. She had missed a reading because she didn't. 

My challenge has been to keep up with The Old Testament Challenge readings. I'm caught up, but now I have to keep up with Rabbit.

We have done a couple of math lessons, and we've almost finished Apologia Physical Science. All that is left is the last two tests. Need to get those together so she can finish that before our next summer trip.
