Wordless Wednesday

I know this is suppose to be Wordless but I have to brag and show my 13yo dysgraphic son's persuasion paper. This kind of writing in the past has been hard for him manly because the organizatioin is a challenged, we are using Apologia's Jump In and it is great.







And here is a picture of the cat my son was referring to, this was the time she found some toilet paper and had fun with it.

Wordless Wednesday 2/11

Funnies from today 2/10

I said the dictation sentence, "My brother is writing a letter to my uncle." My oldest son could not stand and shouted downstairs, " And not a very nice one."

Our puzzler for the day came in Austin's math, "What composite number is equal to the product of the four smallest prime number?" So we did some research and came up with the correct answer of 210, because you don't count 1 so you have to multiply 2,3,5 and 7.

Thoughts from our Homeschool today 2/9

Spelling Sentences mom used:
Her wideness prevented her from fitting in the door, she decided to go on a diet.

Thoughts we have pondered today:
Some birth defects are more defective than others (pondered by my 13yo while looking at my new reading glasses)
