Week 14 in Review

Hawaii project were due this week each kid had to find out some information(varied with the age of the kid) and they all made a travel brochure. Here are some pictures:

Here is our History, we are learning about World War I and had a great discussion today. I am learning a lot. Let's just hope by the time they graduate from highschool they will know more than I did about WWI, honestly would not be hard they already know all I knew before I started studying it this year.

This is the rest of the stuff. I introduced Sudoku to my oldest two for logic and they are loving it. We also started doing geography notebook pages in addition to our daily drills. Math is coming along great, oldest is doing great in ZETA. We also have some science experiment for co-op we are working on it is our break week. For some reason I posted very little of my youngest work this week, he was here and had great week I don't know why I took only a couple pictures of his week.

And finally a picture of our safety officer/crossing gaurd/keeper of the evil cat, she is enjoying her chewy and only had it for a couple of minutes before the other dog stole it from her, his favorite thing to do. She is our little ole lady in a dauschund body, she takes nothing from no one! She likes to make sure we stay quiet and work or she will howl,its her way of saying,"shut up you noise family!"

Week in Review- week 13

This is our week in Review we started studying WWI, my oldest dd started her new math book and we finished our first unit in CQLA. We are 13 week in and boy do I need a break but we still have 35 days until fall break. OHH well we are taking today off and will work on Friday instead of taking it off (we are normally at co-op but it is break week).

Thursday-sloppy joes and I will eat a baked potato
Friday- MOVIE NIGHT popcorn and homemade pizza

Plans for our week

Well this week we are still studying World War I we are focusing on propaganda and studying what that is and looking at examples. We will continue with our regular studies, last week we finished our first unit with CQLA and their writing is coming along. I am so pleased with it, the checklist challenge at the back of each week really helps their writing so much.

This week is our off week of co-op YEAH! It is my favorite week. Now don't get me wrong we love co-op and love teaching at co-op but I do love the break. Next semester we get two break weeks because of Good Friday, what a great bonus!!! Next semester will be stressful because we are going to be moving again, but it is for the best with dh's new job he will have to commute an 1 to 1.5 hour. So honestly it is not fair to live out here he even has to go in during snow and ice storms, and you know us Texans freak out when a snow flurry falls and worse yet it affects our driving ability! Also it would help to bring down our bills if we can lower our rent payment and if we move we can lower by about $400-$500 and that would help a lot! Plus the savings in gas!

My dh starts his new job this week he works Wednesday-Sunday, he works 12 hour shifts and luckily so you figure in the commute time and he will be gone anywhere from 14-15 hours a day! WOW but because he works 12 hour shifts he has 3 days off, it is going to take us all awhile to get use to it. We have been busy grocery shopping and preparing since we only have one car still we are kinda stuck out in middle of nowhere while he is gone. So if someone gets sick I want to be prepared, and so I made sure to have all the common fixes in the houses (you know puke supplies, tylenol, cold medicine).

I will be posting my weekly report for week 13 later today or tonight, we have had busy weekend!
