Weekly Report: Judith, 9/20/08

Math: completed all but Friday's assignments; she'll work on them today.

English: completed three of four composition assignments. She'll finish that last one this week if she doesn't do it today.

Read no more of Silas Marner, so obviously took no more notes about characters and plot. We finish discussing SM next Friday at Gileskirk and then move onto Pride & Prejudice, one of my favorites.

Science: finished her independent work. I still need to administer a quiz and a test. I'd like to do that today, too, so she doesn't get too far behind and have to rush through to keep up with Mary's lab schedule.

History: listened to lecture 8: Nationalism, and lecture 9: Industrial Revolution, pt. 1. Also did the reading for each lecture and participated well in our discussion on Friday at co-op.

Latin: looking pretty good here. She has one quiz to finish and submit, which she's working on now. I'm thrilled that she's enjoying Dave's class. I wasn't sure if she'd be able to tackle Latin after the disaster that her last online Latin class turned into, but Dave is a great teacher. He takes a literature approach instead of a grammar approach. His students read Latin from day one and Lingua Latina is much more interesting than Wheelock.

All in all, Judith had a good week. I'm pleased at the effort she's been putting into her school work this year.

Since next week is a Sabbath week here, Judith will work only on her outside classes: Latin, biology, and history.
