Morning Time: We're reading Philippians, The Gospel Primer, and Northanger Abbey. We worked on memorizing the 23rd Psalm and William Blake's 'Little Lamb'.
History: we read about Handel and classical music this week. The girls spent quite a bit of time listening to the works of Handel, Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven.
Science: we only read half as much as I wanted, but we can easily catch up. Melody is also reading one of the Christian Liberty Nature Readers on her own. And, we saw a Blue Morpho butterfly in Madagascar last night. How cool!
Math: Melody tends to drag her feet in math, but she's making progress. I'm trying to watch to make sure she doesn't get behind like her older siblings did.
English: She's reading Ginger Pye and is eager to start the other books that arrived from Amazon this week, but I won't let her until she finishes GP. She's doing well in Mother Tongue. She especially likes the picture study assignments, where she gets to spend some time contemplating a painting and then write about it. She started Simply Spelling this week. I think this will be a good fit for her.
