With our new schedule the kids have commented how they dont have as much "free" time.. so I have decided that Fridays will be a bit shorter so they can have some free time. Also.. if there is work they dont finish during the week they will have to complete it on Friday free time :)
Today we read our Bible.. and practiced our Latin. I am hoping this weekend we will have all of our chants and voc memorized and be ready to move on to the next chapter on Monday. :) We will do about 15 min of math flash cards and the rest of the day will be a fun reading marathon day. :) (and freetime)
Here are two books that I have been reading lately:
Endangered Minds: Why Children Don't Think And What We Can Do About It by Jane M. Healy
and The Well Educated Mind by Susan Wise Bauer
One thing I have noticed.. since starting our new schedule.. our TV time and video time has drastically reduced! We have discovered there is so much to do there is little time to just sit and stare at the TV anymore :) Although we did watch part of a show about Ancient Troy this morning.. :)
Blessed beyond Measure.!
