October Update

The past few weeks have been hectic.
Kate was born on 9-28
One week later Gram had a stroke.
One more week and Kayla went to the vets with a Broken hip.

We've still been homeschooling although it's turning more into an unstructured "unschooling" environment. Not that I'm against it.

We've worked on:
Math: She's done more worksheets and advanced pretty well into the higher double digits and she's doing well with word problems.
Temperatures: What they mean and how to read a Thermometer
Seasons: We've talked abut Fall and the changing weather. We should start the lapbook for this soon.
The Vores: She's worked on distinguishing the difference between Herbivores, Carnivores and Omnivores. She's drawn pictures and written little bits about the pictures.
Reading Comprehension: When I read to her, she's almost flawless (so long as the story isn't too long), and she's not bad when she reads the story out loud to me.
writing and penmanship:
Reading: We've been trying to make sure to do 15-20 minutes each day. When she reads a new book I check her Comprehension.
Language Arts: She's started to write stories. She draws pictures and has a story that goes along with them.
Human Body: This is something she's still really interested in and has done some drawings of bones and was working up a story about the human body.
