update on the kids

Gosh it's been so long since I have posted! I've realized that I have not made this our learning blog and I plan on getting back on track.
Today: Isaac did time clocks and addition facts. He is currently in a first grade math book. He read his McGruffey reader and did his explode the code.
Isaac is also playing the piano very well. He started about 2 mths ago. Whenever he has a free moment he gets on that piano to play....It's also nice to listen to...

Rebekah has memorized how to draw the continent of Africa by memory and label the countries and capitals. She is also working on Australia and New Zealand to do the same. She is learning her 3rd and 4th declensions in Latin. She is doing well on her percents in math. She is also writing a character analysis on the main character of The Door in the Wall book. Last thing that she is doing this week is drawing the digestive system by memory and learning about it's functions.

Elsah continues to grow and be nurtured by all of us. Every minute she is learning new stuff.
