We started our day with the usual. Rabbit wasn't too upset about the Nate Saint story today. Then we worked on our memory verse.
During Geography we were to look at the Maps of South America. These maps had different data expressed on them. It was kind of fun to see how population and economic development went together. We talked a bit about the data, and worked a little more on the geography packet for South Americia.
We read the science pages. Rabbit asked not to do a science page, so I said okay. She does one most days. It was about living in the rain forest, and how the tribes clear areas and build their houses. The soil is not very deep or fertile, so after a couple of years, they can no longer grow crops, and they move on.
We did about 15 minutes of Spanish at the Tell Me More site. Her favorite part is trying to say the phrases. After snack the kids had a bit of recess. Rabbit worked on writing her letter to her pen pal while I had preschool time with the boys.
After writing eights, we worked more on Rabbit's pen pal letter and finished that up. I figured that counted for writing. The writing eights are going well - she is now able to finish the complete alphabet and numbers.
After lunch, I gave Rabbit a math page while I put the boys down. She took out the test booklet and took the next test for skip counting by threes. She did fine - only missing one question. But, I was a little agitated, as I had asked her to do one Systematic Review page before doing the test. Then I went over the x3 right brained math flash cards with her, as that is coming up next week. Then we worked on spelling, reading, poetry, and music. A pretty good day.
